Psalms 77
1 “To the chief musician on Jeduthun, by Assaph a psalm.” [I lift up] my voice unto God, and I cry; [I lilt up] my voice unto God: do then give ear unto me.
| לַמְנַצֵּ֥חַ עַֽל־יְדִיתוּן (יְדוּת֗וּן) לְאָסָ֥ף מִזְמֹֽור׃ קֹולִ֣י אֶל־אֱלֹהִ֣ים וְאֶצְעָ֑קָה קֹולִ֥י אֶל־אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים וְהַאֲזִ֥ין אֵלָֽי׃ |
2 On the day of my distress I sought the Lord; in the night my hand was stretched out, and did not cease: my soul refused to be comforted.
| בְּיֹ֥ום צָרָתִי֮ אֲדֹנָ֪י דָּ֫רָ֥שְׁתִּי יָדִ֤י ׀ לַ֣יְלָה נִ֭גְּרָה וְלֹ֣א תָפ֑וּג מֵאֲנָ֖ה הִנָּחֵ֣ם נַפְשִֽׁי׃ |
3 I think of God, and moan: I reflect, and my spirit is overwhelmed. (Selah)
| אֶזְכְּרָ֣ה אֱלֹהִ֣ים וְאֶֽהֱמָיָ֑ה אָשִׂ֓יחָה ׀ וְתִתְעַטֵּ֖ף רוּחִ֣י סֶֽלָה׃ |
4 Thou holdest my eyes awake: I am troubled and I cannot speak.
| אָ֭חַזְתָּ שְׁמֻרֹ֣ות עֵינָ֑י נִ֝פְעַ֗מְתִּי וְלֹ֣א אֲדַבֵּֽר׃ |
5 I think over the days of old, the years of ancient times.
| חִשַּׁ֣בְתִּי יָמִ֣ים מִקֶּ֑דֶם שְׁ֝נֹ֗ות עֹולָמִֽים׃ |
6 I call to remembrance my song in the night; with my own heart I reflect: and my spirit maketh diligent search.
| אֶֽזְכְּרָ֥ה נְגִינָתִ֗י בַּ֫לָּ֥יְלָה עִם־לְבָבִ֥י אָשִׂ֑יחָה וַיְחַפֵּ֥שׂ רוּחִֽי׃ |
7 Will the Lord cast me off for ever? and will he never more give his favor again?
| הַֽ֭לְעֹולָמִים יִזְנַ֥ח ׀ אֲדֹנָ֑י וְלֹֽא־יֹסִ֖יף לִרְצֹ֣ות עֹֽוד׃ |
8 Is his kindness spent for ever? is his promise come to an end for all generations?
| הֶאָפֵ֣ס לָנֶ֣צַח חַסְדֹּ֑ו גָּ֥מַר אֹ֝֗מֶר לְדֹ֣ר וָדֹֽר׃ |
9 Hath God forgotten to be gracious? or hath he shut up in anger his mercies? (Selah)
| הֲשָׁכַ֣ח חַנֹּ֣ות אֵ֑ל אִם־קָפַ֥ץ בְּ֝אַ֗ף רַחֲמָ֥יו סֶֽלָה׃ |
10 And I said, This shall be my entreaty, [for] the years of the right hand of the Most High.
| וָ֭אֹמַר חַלֹּ֣ותִי הִ֑יא שְׁ֝נֹ֗ות יְמִ֣ין עֶלְיֹֽון׃ |
11 I will remember the deeds of the Lord; for I will remember out of ancient times thy wonders.
| אַזְכִּיר (אֶזְכֹּ֥ור) מַֽעַלְלֵי־יָ֑הּ כִּֽי־אֶזְכְּרָ֖ה מִקֶּ֣דֶם פִּלְאֶֽךָ׃ |
12 I will meditate also of all thy work, and on thy deeds will I reflect.
| וְהָגִ֥יתִי בְכָל־פָּעֳלֶ֑ךָ וּֽבַעֲלִ֖ילֹותֶ֣יךָ אָשִֽׂיחָה׃ |
13 O God, in holiness is thy way: where is there a god so great as God?
| אֱ֭לֹהִים בַּקֹּ֣דֶשׁ דַּרְכֶּ֑ךָ מִי־אֵ֥ל גָּ֝דֹ֗ול כֵּֽאלֹהִֽים׃ |
14 Thou art the God that dost wonders: thou hast made known among the people thy strength.
| אַתָּ֣ה הָ֭אֵל עֹ֣שֵׂה פֶ֑לֶא הֹודַ֖עְתָּ בָעַמִּ֣ים עֻזֶּֽךָ׃ |
15 Thou hast redeemed with [a mighty] arm thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah)
| גָּאַ֣לְתָּ בִּזְרֹ֣ועַ עַמֶּ֑ךָ בְּנֵי־יַעֲקֹ֖ב וְיֹוסֵ֣ף סֶֽלָה׃ |
16 The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they shook: also the depths trembled.
| רָ֘א֤וּךָ מַּ֨יִם ׀ אֱֽלֹהִ֗ים רָא֣וּךָ מַּ֣יִם יָחִ֑ילוּ אַ֝֗ף יִרְגְּז֥וּ תְהֹמֹֽות׃ |
17 The clouds poured out water; the skies sent forth thunder: also thy arrows sped along.
| זֹ֤רְמוּ מַ֨יִם ׀ עָבֹ֗ות קֹ֖ול נָתְנ֣וּ שְׁחָקִ֑ים אַף־חֲ֝צָצֶ֗יךָ יִתְהַלָּֽכוּ׃ |
18 The voice of thy thunder was in the whirlwind; lightnings gave light to the world; the earth trembled and quaked,
| קֹ֤ול רַעַמְךָ֨ ׀ בַּגַּלְגַּ֗ל הֵאִ֣ירוּ בְרָקִ֣ים תֵּבֵ֑ל רָגְזָ֖ה וַתִּרְעַ֣שׁ הָאָֽרֶץ׃ |
19 Through the sea led thy way, and thy path was through mighty waters, and thy footsteps could not be known.
| בַּיָּ֤ם דַּרְכֶּ֗ךָ וּשְׁבִילֶיךָ (וּֽ֭שְׁבִֽילְךָ) בְּמַ֣יִם רַבִּ֑ים וְ֝עִקְּבֹותֶ֗יךָ לֹ֣א נֹדָֽעוּ׃ |
20 Thou didst lead like a flock thy people by means of Moses and Aaron.
| נָחִ֣יתָ כַצֹּ֣אן עַמֶּ֑ךָ בְּֽיַד־מֹשֶׁ֥ה וְאַהֲרֹֽן׃ |
