¹ For the excellent musitian Ieduthun. A Psalme committed to Asaph. My voyce came to God, when I cryed: my voyce came to God, and he heard me.² In the day of my trouble I sought ye Lord: my sore ranne and ceased not in the night: my soule refused comfort.³ I did thinke vpon God, & was troubled: I praied, and my spirit was full of anguish. Selah.⁴ Thou keepest mine eyes waking: I was astonied and could not speake.⁵ Then I considered the daies of olde, and the yeeres of ancient time.⁶ I called to remembrance my song in the night: I communed with mine owne heart, and my spirit searched diligently.⁷ Will the Lorde absent him selfe for euer? and will he shewe no more fauour?⁸ Is his mercie cleane gone for euer? doeth his promes faile for euermore?⁹ Hath God forgotten to be mercifull? hath he shut vp his teder mercies in displeasure? Selah.¹⁰ And I sayde, This is my death: yet I remembred the yeeres of the right hand of the most High.

¹¹ I remembred the workes of the Lorde: certainely I remembred thy wonders of olde.¹² I did also meditate all thy woorkes, and did deuise of thine actes, saying,¹³ Thy way, O God, is in the Sanctuarie: who is so great a God as our God!¹⁴ Thou art ye God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy power among the people.¹⁵ Thou hast redeemed thy people with thine arme, euen the sonnes of Iaakob & Ioseph. Selah.¹⁶ The waters sawe thee, O God: the waters sawe thee, and were afraide: yea, the depths trembled.¹⁷ The cloudes powred out water: the heauens gaue a sounde: yea, thine arrowes went abroade.¹⁸ The voyce of thy thunder was rounde about: the lightnings lightened the worlde: the earth trembled and shooke.¹⁹ Thy way is in the Sea, and thy paths in the great waters, & thy footesteps are not knowen.²⁰ Thou diddest leade thy people like sheepe by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
