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