Psalm 77 :: New English Translation (NET)

Psa 77:1I will cry out to God and call for help! I will cry out to God and he will pay attention to me.
Psa 77:2In my time of trouble I sought the Lord. I kept my hand raised in prayer throughout the night. I refused to be comforted.
Psa 77:3I said, "I will remember God while I groan; I will think about him while my strength leaves me." (Selah)
Psa 77:4You held my eyelids open; I was troubled and could not speak.
Psa 77:5I thought about the days of old, about ancient times.
Psa 77:6I said, "During the night I will remember the song I once sang; I will think very carefully." I tried to make sense of what was happening.
Psa 77:7I asked, "Will the Lord reject me forever? Will he never again show me his favor?
Psa 77:8Has his loyal love disappeared forever? Has his promise failed forever?
Psa 77:9Has God forgotten to be merciful? Has his anger stifled his compassion?"
Psa 77:10Then I said, "I am sickened by the thought that the sovereign One might become inactive.
Psa 77:11I will remember the works of the LORD. Yes, I will remember the amazing things you did long ago!
Psa 77:12I will think about all you have done; I will reflect upon your deeds!"
Psa 77:13O God, your deeds are extraordinary! What god can compare to our great God?
Psa 77:14You are the God who does amazing things; you have revealed your strength among the nations.
Psa 77:15You delivered your people by your strength - the children of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah)
Psa 77:16The waters saw you, O God, the waters saw you and trembled. Yes, the depths of the sea shook with fear.
Psa 77:17The clouds poured down rain; the skies thundered. Yes, your arrows flashed about.
Psa 77:18Your thunderous voice was heard in the wind; the lightning bolts lit up the world; the earth trembled and shook.
Psa 77:19You walked through the sea; you passed through the surging waters, but left no footprints.
Psa 77:20You led your people like a flock of sheep, by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
