Psalms 77
1 [For the Chief Musician. To Jeduthun. A Psalm by Asaph.] My cry goes to God. Indeed, I cry to God for help, and for him to listen to me.
| לַמְנַצֵּ֥חַ עַֽל־יְדִיתוּן (יְדוּת֗וּן) לְאָסָ֥ף מִזְמֹֽור׃ קֹולִ֣י אֶל־אֱלֹהִ֣ים וְאֶצְעָ֑קָה קֹולִ֥י אֶל־אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים וְהַאֲזִ֥ין אֵלָֽי׃ |
2 In the day of my trouble I sought Jehovah. My hand was stretched out in the night, and did not get tired. My soul refused to be comforted.
| בְּיֹ֥ום צָרָתִי֮ אֲדֹנָ֪י דָּ֫רָ֥שְׁתִּי יָדִ֤י ׀ לַ֣יְלָה נִ֭גְּרָה וְלֹ֣א תָפ֑וּג מֵאֲנָ֖ה הִנָּחֵ֣ם נַפְשִֽׁי׃ |
3 I remember God, and I groan. I complain, and my spirit is overwhelmed. (Selah)
| אֶזְכְּרָ֣ה אֱלֹהִ֣ים וְאֶֽהֱמָיָ֑ה אָשִׂ֓יחָה ׀ וְתִתְעַטֵּ֖ף רוּחִ֣י סֶֽלָה׃ |
4 You hold my eyelids open. I am so troubled that I can't speak.
| אָ֭חַזְתָּ שְׁמֻרֹ֣ות עֵינָ֑י נִ֝פְעַ֗מְתִּי וְלֹ֣א אֲדַבֵּֽר׃ |
5 I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.
| חִשַּׁ֣בְתִּי יָמִ֣ים מִקֶּ֑דֶם שְׁ֝נֹ֗ות עֹולָמִֽים׃ |
6 I remember my song in the night. I consider in my own heart; my spirit diligently inquires:
| אֶֽזְכְּרָ֥ה נְגִינָתִ֗י בַּ֫לָּ֥יְלָה עִם־לְבָבִ֥י אָשִׂ֑יחָה וַיְחַפֵּ֥שׂ רוּחִֽי׃ |
7 "Will Jehovah reject us forever? Will he be favorable no more?
| הַֽ֭לְעֹולָמִים יִזְנַ֥ח ׀ אֲדֹנָ֑י וְלֹֽא־יֹסִ֖יף לִרְצֹ֣ות עֹֽוד׃ |
8 Has his loving kindness vanished forever? Does his promise fail for generations?
| הֶאָפֵ֣ס לָנֶ֣צַח חַסְדֹּ֑ו גָּ֥מַר אֹ֝֗מֶר לְדֹ֣ר וָדֹֽר׃ |
9 Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he, in anger, withheld his compassion?" (Selah)
| הֲשָׁכַ֣ח חַנֹּ֣ות אֵ֑ל אִם־קָפַ֥ץ בְּ֝אַ֗ף רַחֲמָ֥יו סֶֽלָה׃ |
10 And I thought, "This is my wounding, that the right hand of the Most High has changed."
| וָ֭אֹמַר חַלֹּ֣ותִי הִ֑יא שְׁ֝נֹ֗ות יְמִ֣ין עֶלְיֹֽון׃ |
11 I will remember the works of JAH; for I will remember your wonders of old.
| אַזְכִּיר (אֶזְכֹּ֥ור) מַֽעַלְלֵי־יָ֑הּ כִּֽי־אֶזְכְּרָ֖ה מִקֶּ֣דֶם פִּלְאֶֽךָ׃ |
12 I will also meditate on all your work, and consider your doings.
| וְהָגִ֥יתִי בְכָל־פָּעֳלֶ֑ךָ וּֽבַעֲלִ֖ילֹותֶ֣יךָ אָשִֽׂיחָה׃ |
13 Your way, God, is in the sanctuary. What god is great like God?
| אֱ֭לֹהִים בַּקֹּ֣דֶשׁ דַּרְכֶּ֑ךָ מִי־אֵ֥ל גָּ֝דֹ֗ול כֵּֽאלֹהִֽים׃ |
14 You are the God who does wonders. You have made your strength known among the peoples.
| אַתָּ֣ה הָ֭אֵל עֹ֣שֵׂה פֶ֑לֶא הֹודַ֖עְתָּ בָעַמִּ֣ים עֻזֶּֽךָ׃ |
15 You have redeemed your people with your arm, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah)
| גָּאַ֣לְתָּ בִּזְרֹ֣ועַ עַמֶּ֑ךָ בְּנֵי־יַעֲקֹ֖ב וְיֹוסֵ֣ף סֶֽלָה׃ |
16 The waters saw you, God. The waters saw you, and they writhed. The depths also convulsed.
| רָ֘א֤וּךָ מַּ֨יִם ׀ אֱֽלֹהִ֗ים רָא֣וּךָ מַּ֣יִם יָחִ֑ילוּ אַ֝֗ף יִרְגְּז֥וּ תְהֹמֹֽות׃ |
17 The clouds poured out water. The skies resounded with thunder. Your arrows also flashed around.
| זֹ֤רְמוּ מַ֨יִם ׀ עָבֹ֗ות קֹ֖ול נָתְנ֣וּ שְׁחָקִ֑ים אַף־חֲ֝צָצֶ֗יךָ יִתְהַלָּֽכוּ׃ |
18 The voice of your thunder was in the whirlwind. The lightnings lit up the world. The earth trembled and shook.
| קֹ֤ול רַעַמְךָ֨ ׀ בַּגַּלְגַּ֗ל הֵאִ֣ירוּ בְרָקִ֣ים תֵּבֵ֑ל רָגְזָ֖ה וַתִּרְעַ֣שׁ הָאָֽרֶץ׃ |
19 Your way was through the sea; your paths through the great waters. Your footsteps were not known.
| בַּיָּ֤ם דַּרְכֶּ֗ךָ וּשְׁבִילֶיךָ (וּֽ֭שְׁבִֽילְךָ) בְּמַ֣יִם רַבִּ֑ים וְ֝עִקְּבֹותֶ֗יךָ לֹ֣א נֹדָֽעוּ׃ |
20 You led your people like a flock, by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
| נָחִ֣יתָ כַצֹּ֣אן עַמֶּ֑ךָ בְּֽיַד־מֹשֶׁ֥ה וְאַהֲרֹֽן׃ |
