תהילים 77

1 לַמְנַצֵּחַ עַֽל־[יְדוּתוּן] (ידיתון) לְאָסָף מִזְמֽוֹר׃ קוֹלִי אֶל־אֱלֹהִים וְאֶצְעָקָה קוֹלִי אֶל־אֱלֹהִים וְהַאֲזִין אֵלָֽי׃

For the choirmaster. According to Jeduthun. A Psalm of Asaph. I cried out to God; I cried aloud to God to hear me.

2 בְּיוֹם צָרָתִי אֲדֹנָי דָּרָשְׁתִּי יָדִי ׀ לַיְלָה נִגְּרָה וְלֹא תָפוּג מֵאֲנָה הִנָּחֵם נַפְשִֽׁי׃

In the day of trouble I sought the Lord; through the night my outstretched hands did not grow weary; my soul refused to be comforted.

3 אֶזְכְּרָה אֱלֹהִים וְאֶהֱמָיָה אָשִׂיחָה ׀ וְתִתְעַטֵּף רוּחִי סֶֽלָה׃

I remembered You, O God, and I groaned; I mused and my spirit grew faint.

4 אָחַזְתָּ שְׁמֻרוֹת עֵינָי נִפְעַמְתִּי וְלֹא אֲדַבֵּֽר׃

You have kept my eyes from closing; I am too troubled to speak.

5 חִשַּׁבְתִּי יָמִים מִקֶּדֶם שְׁנוֹת עוֹלָמִֽים׃

I considered the days of old, the years long in the past.

6 אֶזְכְּרָה נְגִינָתִי בַּלָּיְלָה עִם־לְבָבִי אָשִׂיחָה וַיְחַפֵּשׂ רוּחִֽי׃

At night I remembered my song; in my heart I mused, and my spirit pondered:

7 הַלְעוֹלָמִים יִזְנַח ׀ אֲדֹנָי וְלֹא־יֹסִיף לִרְצוֹת עֽוֹד׃

“Will the Lord spurn us forever and never show His favor again?

8 הֶאָפֵס לָנֶצַח חַסְדּוֹ גָּמַר אֹמֶר לְדֹר וָדֹֽר׃

Is His loving devotion gone forever? Has His promise failed for all time?

9 הֲשָׁכַח חַנּוֹת אֵל אִם־קָפַץ בְּאַף רַחֲמָיו סֶֽלָה׃

Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has His anger shut off His compassion?”

10 וָאֹמַר חַלּוֹתִי הִיא שְׁנוֹת יְמִין עֶלְיֽוֹן׃

So I said, “I am grieved that the right hand of the Most High has changed.”

11 (אזכיר) [אֶזְכּוֹר] מַעַלְלֵי־יָהּ כִּֽי־אֶזְכְּרָה מִקֶּדֶם פִּלְאֶֽךָ׃

I will remember the works of the LORD; yes, I will remember Your wonders of old.

12 וְהָגִיתִי בְכׇל־פׇּעֳלֶךָ וּֽבַעֲלִילוֹתֶיךָ אָשִֽׂיחָה׃

I will reflect on all You have done and ponder Your mighty deeds.

13 אֱלֹהִים בַּקֹּדֶשׁ דַּרְכֶּךָ מִי־אֵל גָּדוֹל כֵּאלֹהִֽים׃

Your way, O God, is holy. What god is so great as our God?

14 אַתָּה הָאֵל עֹשֵׂה פֶלֶא הוֹדַעְתָּ בָעַמִּים עֻזֶּֽךָ׃

You are the God who works wonders; You display Your strength among the peoples.

15 גָּאַלְתָּ בִּזְרוֹעַ עַמֶּךָ בְּנֵֽי־יַעֲקֹב וְיוֹסֵף סֶֽלָה׃

With power You redeemed Your people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph.

16 רָאוּךָ מַּיִם ׀ אֱֽלֹהִים רָאוּךָ מַּיִם יָחִילוּ אַף יִרְגְּזוּ תְהֹמֽוֹת׃

The waters saw You, O God; the waters saw You and swirled; even the depths were shaken.

17 זֹרְמוּ מַיִם ׀ עָבוֹת קוֹל נָֽתְנוּ שְׁחָקִים אַף־חֲצָצֶיךָ יִתְהַלָּֽכוּ׃

The clouds poured down water; the skies resounded with thunder; Your arrows flashed back and forth.

18 קוֹל רַֽעַמְךָ ׀ בַּגַּלְגַּל הֵאִירוּ בְרָקִים תֵּבֵל רָגְזָה וַתִּרְעַשׁ הָאָֽרֶץ׃

Your thunder resounded in the whirlwind; the lightning lit up the world; the earth trembled and quaked.

19 בַּיָּם דַּרְכֶּךָ (ושביליך) [וּֽשְׁבִילְךָ] בְּמַיִם רַבִּים וְעִקְּבוֹתֶיךָ לֹא נֹדָֽעוּ׃

Your path led through the sea, Your way through the mighty waters, but Your footprints were not to be found.

20 נָחִיתָ כַצֹּאן עַמֶּךָ בְּֽיַד־מֹשֶׁה וְאַהֲרֹֽן׃

You led Your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
