¹ I ^(c)cry aloud to God,
    aloud to God, and he will hear me.
^2 (d)In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord;
    in ^(e)the night my ^(f)hand is stretched out without wearying;
    my soul ^(g)refuses to be comforted.
³ When I remember God, I ^(h)moan;
    when I meditate, my spirit faints. Selah

⁴ You hold my eyelids open;
    I am so ⁽ⁱ⁾troubled that I cannot speak.
⁵ I consider ^(j)the days of old,
    the years long ago.
⁶ I said,^[a] "Let me remember my ^(k)song in the night;
    let me ^(l)meditate in my heart."
    Then my spirit made a diligent search:
⁷ "Will the Lord ^(m)spurn forever,
    and never again ⁽ⁿ⁾be favorable?
⁸ Has his steadfast love forever ceased?
    Are his ^(o)promises at an end for all time?
^9 (p)Has God forgotten to be gracious?
    ^(q)Has he in anger shut up his compassion?" Selah

¹⁰ Then I said, "I will appeal to this,
    to the years of the ^(r)right hand of the Most High."^[b]

¹¹ I will remember the deeds of the Lord;
    yes, I will ^(s)remember your wonders of old.
¹² I will ponder all your ^(t)work,
    and meditate on your ^(u)mighty deeds.
¹³ Your way, O God, is ^(v)holy.
    ^(w)What god is great like our God?
¹⁴ You are the God who ^(x)works wonders;
    you have ^(y)made known your might among the peoples.
¹⁵ You ^(z)with your arm redeemed your people,
    the children of Jacob and Joseph. Selah

¹⁶ When ^(aa)the waters saw you, O God,
    when the waters saw you, they were afraid;
    indeed, the deep trembled.
¹⁷ The clouds poured out water;
    the skies ^(ab)gave forth thunder;
    your ^(ac)arrows flashed on every side.
^18 (ad)The crash of your thunder was in the whirlwind;
    ^(ae)your lightnings lighted up the world;
    the earth ^(af)trembled and shook.
¹⁹ Your ^(ag)way was through the sea,
    your path through the great waters;
    yet your footprints ^(ah)were unseen.^[c]
20 You ^(ai)led your people like a flock
    by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
