1
To the Chief Musician. To Jeduthun. A Psalm of Asaph. I cried out to God with my voice-- To God with my voice; And He gave ear to me.
2
In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord; My hand was stretched out in the night without ceasing; My soul refused to be comforted.
3
I remembered God, and was troubled; I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah
4
You hold my eyelids open; I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
5
I have considered the days of old, The years of ancient times.
6
I call to remembrance my song in the night; I meditate within my heart, And my spirit makes diligent search.
7
Will the Lord cast off forever? And will He be favorable no more?
8
Has His mercy ceased forever? Has His promise failed forevermore?
9
Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has He in anger shut up His tender mercies? Selah
10
And I said, "This is my anguish; But I will remember the years of the right hand of the Most High."
11
I will remember the works of the Lord; Surely I will remember Your wonders of old.
12
I will also meditate on all Your work, And talk of Your deeds.
