Mazmur 77
1 Untuk pemimpin kor. Menurut: Yedutun. Mazmur Asaf. Dengan nyaring aku berseru kepada Allah; dengan nyaring aku berseru, dan Ia mendengar aku.
For the leader. On Jeduthun. Of Asaph, a psalm. Loudly will I lift my cry to God, loudly to God, so he hears to me.
2 Di waktu kesesakan aku berdoa kepada TUHAN; sepanjang malam kuangkat tanganku kepada-Nya tanpa jemu, tetapi hatiku tak mau dihibur.
In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord; in the night I lift my hands in prayer, refusing all comfort.
3 Bila aku ingat Allah, aku mengaduh, bila aku merenung, hatiku semakin lesu.
When I think of God, I moan; when I muse, my spirit is faint. (Selah)
4 TUHAN membuat aku tak bisa tidur di waktu malam, aku gelisah sehingga tak dapat berbicara.
When you hold my eyes awake, and I am restless and speechless,
5 Kupikirkan hari-hari yang lampau, kuingat-ingat dan kurenungkan tahun-tahun yang silam.
I think of the days of old, call to mind distant years.
6 Di waktu malam aku berpikir-pikir, dan bertanya-tanya dalam hati,
I commune with my heart in the night, I muse with inquiring spirit.
7 "Untuk selamanyakah TUHAN menolak dan tidak berkenan lagi?
“Will the Lord cast us off forever, will he be gracious no more?
8 Apakah Ia sudah berhenti mengasihi kami? Tidakkah Ia memenuhi janji-Nya lagi?
Has his love vanished forever? Is his faithfulness utterly gone?
9 Sudah lupakah Allah untuk mengasihani? Marahkah Ia, sehingga tidak berbelaskasihan lagi?"
Has God forgotten to be gracious, or in anger withheld his compassion?” (Selah)
10 Lalu aku berkata, "Inilah yang menyakiti hatiku, bahwa Yang Mahatinggi tidak berkuasa lagi."
Then I said, “This it is that grieves me, that the hand of the Most High has changed.”
11 Aku mau mengingat perbuatan-perbuatan-Mu TUHAN, mengenang keajaiban-keajaiban-Mu di zaman dahulu.
I will think of the deeds of the Lord, and remember your wonders of old.
12 Aku mau merenungkan segala yang Kaulakukan, dan memikirkan karya-karya-Mu yang hebat.
I will muse on all you have wrought, and meditate on your deeds.
13 Ya Allah, segala perbuatan-Mu suci, siapakah sebesar Allah kami?
Then your way, O God, was majestic: what God was great as our God?
14 Engkaulah Allah yang melakukan keajaiban, kuasa-Mu telah Kaunyatakan di antara bangsa-bangsa.
You were a God who did marvels, you did show your power to the world
15 Dengan kekuatan-Mu Kaubebaskan umat-Mu, keturunan Yakub dan Yusuf.
by your arm you rescued your people, the children of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah)
16 Melihat Engkau, ya Allah, air menjadi gentar, ya, dasar laut pun gemetar.
The waters saw you, O God. The waters saw you and shivered; to their depths they trembled.
17 Awan mencurahkan hujan, guntur mengguruh; halilintar menyambar ke segala arah.
Clouds poured torrents of water, thunder rolled in the sky, your arrows sped to and fro.
18 Guntur menggelegar, kilat berpijar, bumi goncang dan gemetar.
Loud was the roll of your thunder, lightnings lit up the world. Earth quaked and trembled.
19 Engkau berjalan melalui ombak, mengarungi lautan, tetapi jejak-Mu tak tampak.
In your way, Lord, through the sea, in your path through the mighty waters, your footsteps were all unseen.
20 Seperti gembala Engkau menuntun umat-Mu, dengan perantaraan Musa dan Harun.
You did guide your folk like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
