תהילים 77

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

For the chief musician; after the manner of Jeduthun. A psalm of Asaph. I will call out with my voice to God; I will call with my voice to God, and my God will hear me.

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

In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord; at night I stretched my hands out, and they would not become tired. My soul refused to be comforted.

3 אֶזְכְּרָה אֱלֹהִים וְאֶהֱמָיָה אָשִׂיחָה ׀ וְתִתְעַטֵּף רוּחִי סֶֽלָה׃

I thought of God as I groaned; I thought about him as I grew faint. (Selah)

4 אָחַזְתָּ שְׁמֻרוֹת עֵינָי נִפְעַמְתִּי וְלֹא אֲדַבֵּֽר׃

You held my eyes open; I was too troubled to speak.

5 חִשַּׁבְתִּי יָמִים מִקֶּדֶם שְׁנוֹת עוֹלָמִֽים׃

I thought about the days of old, about times long past.

6 אֶזְכְּרָה נְגִינָתִי בַּלָּיְלָה עִם־לְבָבִי אָשִׂיחָה וַיְחַפֵּשׂ רוּחִֽי׃

During the night I called to mind the song I once sang. I thought carefully and tried to understand what had happened.

7 הַלְעוֹלָמִים יִזְנַח ׀ אֲדֹנָי וְלֹא־יֹסִיף לִרְצוֹת עֽוֹד׃

Will the Lord reject me forever? Will he never again show me favor?

8 הֶאָפֵס לָנֶצַח חַסְדּוֹ גָּמַר אֹמֶר לְדֹר וָדֹֽר׃

Was his covenant faithfulness gone forever? Had his promise failed forever?

9 הֲשָׁכַח חַנּוֹת אֵל אִם־קָפַץ בְּאַף רַחֲמָיו סֶֽלָה׃

Had God forgotten to be gracious? Had his anger shut off his compassion? (Selah)

10 וָאֹמַר חַלּוֹתִי הִיא שְׁנוֹת יְמִין עֶלְיֽוֹן׃

I said, “This is my sorrow: the changing of the right hand of the Most High toward us.”

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

But I will call to mind your deeds, Yahweh; I will think about your wonderful deeds of old.

12 וְהָגִיתִי בְכׇל־פׇּעֳלֶךָ וּֽבַעֲלִילוֹתֶיךָ אָשִֽׂיחָה׃

I will ponder all your deeds and will reflect on them.

13 אֱלֹהִים בַּקֹּדֶשׁ דַּרְכֶּךָ מִי־אֵל גָּדוֹל כֵּאלֹהִֽים׃

Your way, God, is holy; what god compares to our great God?

14 אַתָּה הָאֵל עֹשֵׂה פֶלֶא הוֹדַעְתָּ בָעַמִּים עֻזֶּֽךָ׃

You are the God who does wonders; you have revealed your strength among the peoples.

15 גָּאַלְתָּ בִּזְרוֹעַ עַמֶּךָ בְּנֵֽי־יַעֲקֹב וְיוֹסֵף סֶֽלָה׃

You gave your people victory by your great power— the descendants of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah)

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

The waters saw you, God; the waters saw you, and they were afraid; the depths trembled.

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

The clouds poured down water; the cloudy skies gave voice; your arrows flew about.

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

Your thunderous voice was heard in the wind; the lightning lit up the world; the earth trembled and shook.

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

Your path went through the sea and your way through the surging waters, but your footprints were not seen.

20 נָחִיתָ כַצֹּאן עַמֶּךָ בְּֽיַד־מֹשֶׁה וְאַהֲרֹֽן׃

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