1 ¶ I cried unto God with my voice, even unto God with my voice; and he gave ear unto me.

2 I n the day of my trouble I sought the Lord; my sore bled in the night and ceased not; my soul refused to be comforted.

3 I remembered God and cried out; I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah.

4 T hou didst hold my eyelids open; I am broken and did not speak.

5 I have considered the days from the beginning, the years of the ages.

6 I call to remembrance my songs of the night; I commune with my own heart, and my spirit made diligent search.

7 W ill the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more?

8 I s his mercy gone for ever? does his word fail from generation to generation?

9 H as God forgotten to have mercy? has he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah.

10 A nd I said, This is my infirmity, but I will remember the years of the right hand of the most High.

11 ¶ I remembered the works of JAH; therefore I shall remember thy wonders of old.

12 I meditated also on all thy works and spoke of thy doings.

13 T hy way, O God, is in holiness; who is so great a God as our God?

14 T hou art the God that doest wonders; thou hast declared thy strength among the peoples.

15 T hou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.

16 T he waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they were afraid; the depths also were troubled.

17 T he clouds poured out floods of waters; the heavens thundered; thy bolts of lightning also went forth.

18 T he voice of thy thunder was all around; the lightnings lightened the world; the earth trembled and shook.

19 T hy way was in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps were not known.

20 T hou didst lead thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
