< Psalms 77 >
1 TO THE OVERSEER. FOR JEDUTHUN. A PSALM OF ASAPH. My voice [is] to God, and I cry, My voice [is] to God, And He has given ear to me.
Untuk pemimpin biduan. Menurut: Yedutun. Mazmur Asaf. Aku mau berseru-seru dengan nyaring kepada Allah, dengan nyaring kepada Allah, supaya Ia mendengarkan aku.
2 I sought the Lord in a day of my distress, My hand has been spread out by night, And it does not cease, My soul has refused to be comforted.
Pada hari kesusahanku aku mencari Tuhan; malam-malam tanganku terulur dan tidak menjadi lesu, jiwaku enggan dihiburkan.
3 I remember God, and make a noise, I meditate, and my spirit is feeble. (Selah)
Apabila aku mengingat Allah, maka aku mengerang, apabila aku merenung, makin lemah lesulah semangatku. (Sela)
4 You have taken hold of the watches of my eyes, I have been moved, and I do not speak.
Engkau membuat mataku tetap terbuka; aku gelisah, sehingga tidak dapat berkata-kata.
5 I have reckoned the days of old, The years of the ages.
Aku memikir-mikir hari-hari zaman purbakala, tahun-tahun zaman dahulu aku ingat.
6 I remember my music in the night, I meditate with my heart, and my spirit searches diligently:
Aku sebut-sebut pada waktu malam dalam hatiku, aku merenung, dan rohku mencari-cari:
7 Does the Lord cast off for all ages? Does He add to be pleased no longer?
"Untuk selamanyakah Tuhan menolak dan tidak kembali bermurah hati lagi?
8 Has His kindness ceased forever? The saying failed from generation to generation?
Sudah lenyapkah untuk seterusnya kasih setia-Nya, telah berakhirkah janji itu berlaku turun-temurun?
9 Has God forgotten [His] favors? Has He shut up His mercies in anger? (Selah)
Sudah lupakah Allah menaruh kasihan, atau ditutup-Nyakah rahmat-Nya karena murka-Nya?" (Sela)
10 And I say: “My weakness is, The changes of the right hand of the Most High.”
Maka kataku: "Inilah yang menikam hatiku, bahwa tangan kanan Yang Mahatinggi berubah."
11 I mention the doings of YAH, For I remember Your wonders of old,
Aku hendak mengingat perbuatan-perbuatan TUHAN, ya, aku hendak mengingat keajaiban-keajaiban-Mu dari zaman purbakala.
12 And I have meditated on all Your working, And I talk concerning Your doings.
Aku hendak menyebut-nyebut segala pekerjaan-Mu, dan merenungkan perbuatan-perbuatan-Mu.
13 O God, Your way [is] in holiness, Who [is] a great god like God?
Ya Allah, jalan-Mu adalah kudus! Allah manakah yang begitu besar seperti Allah kami?
14 You [are] the God doing wonders. You have made Your strength known among the peoples,
Engkaulah Allah yang melakukan keajaiban; Engkau telah menyatakan kuasa-Mu di antara bangsa-bangsa.
15 You have redeemed Your people with strength, The sons of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah)
Dengan lengan-Mu Engkau telah menebus umat-Mu, bani Yakub dan bani Yusuf. (Sela)
16 The waters have seen You, O God, The waters have seen You, They are afraid—also depths are troubled.
Air telah melihat Engkau, ya Allah, air telah melihat Engkau, lalu menjadi gentar, bahkan samudera raya gemetar.
17 Thick clouds have poured out waters, The skies have given forth a noise, Also—Your arrows go up and down.
Awan-awan mencurahkan air, awan-gemawan bergemuruh, bahkan anak-anak panah-Mu beterbangan.
18 The voice of Your thunder [is] in the spheres, Lightnings have lightened the world, The earth has trembled, indeed, it shakes.
Deru guntur-Mu menggelinding, kilat-kilat menerangi dunia, bumi gemetar dan bergoncang.
19 Your way [is] in the sea, And Your paths in many waters, And Your tracks have not been known.
Melalui laut jalan-Mu dan lorong-Mu melalui muka air yang luas, tetapi jejak-Mu tidak kelihatan.
20 You have led Your people as a flock, By the hand of Moses and Aaron!
Engkau telah menuntun umat-Mu seperti kawanan domba dengan perantaraan Musa dan Harun.
