- 0:03Speaker 1: Psalm seventy seven for the Chief Musician to Jeddathan, a
- 0:07Speaker 1: psalm by Aesop. My cry goes to God. Indeed, I
- 0:12Speaker 1: cry to God for help and for him to listen
- 0:14Speaker 1: to me. In the day of my trouble, I sought
- 0:17Speaker 1: the Lord. My hand was stretched out in the night,
- 0:19Speaker 1: and then and get tired. My soul refused to be comforted.
- 0:24Speaker 1: I remember God, and I groan. I complain, and my
- 0:27Speaker 1: spirit is overwhelmed. You hold my eyelids open. I am
- 0:31Speaker 1: so troubled that I can't speak. I have considered the
- 0:34Speaker 1: days of old, the years of ancient times. I remember
- 0:37Speaker 1: my song in the night. I consider in my own heart.
- 0:40Speaker 1: My spirit diligently inquires, will the Lord reject us? Forever?
- 0:45Speaker 1: Will he be favorable? No more? Has his loving kindness vanished?
- 0:49Speaker 1: Forever does his promise fail? For generations? Has God forgotten
- 0:54Speaker 1: to be gracious? Has he, in anger withheld his compassion?
- 0:58Speaker 1: Then I thought, I will appear til to this the
- 1:01Speaker 1: years of the right hand of the Most High. I
- 1:03Speaker 1: will remember Ya's deeds, for I will remember your wonders
- 1:07Speaker 1: of old. I will also meditate on all your work
- 1:10Speaker 1: and consider your doings. Your way. God is in the sanctuary.
- 1:15Speaker 1: What God is great? Like God, you are the God
- 1:18Speaker 1: who does wonders. You have made your strength known among
- 1:21Speaker 1: the peoples. You have redeemed your people with your arm,
- 1:24Speaker 1: the sons of Jacob and Joseph. The waters saw you God.
- 1:28Speaker 1: The water saw you, and they writhed. The depths also convulsed,
- 1:33Speaker 1: The clouds poured out water. The skies resounded with thunder.
- 1:36Speaker 1: Your arrows also flashed around. The voice of your thunder
- 1:40Speaker 1: was in the whirlwind. The lightnings lit up the world.
- 1:43Speaker 1: The earth trembled and shook. Your way was through the sea,
- 1:47Speaker 1: your pass through the great waters. Your footsteps were not known.
- 1:51Speaker 1: You led your people like a flock by the hand
- 1:54Speaker 1: of Moses and Aaron.
