Psalms 76-77
Chapter 76
The Victorious Power of the God of Jacob.
1 God is (C1)known in Judah;
His name is (C2)great in Israel.
2 His (F1)(C1)tabernacle is in (C2)Salem;
His (C3)dwelling place also is in Zion.
3 There He (C1)broke the (F1)flaming arrows,
The shield, the sword, and the (F2)weapons of war. Selah
4 You are resplendent,
(F1)More majestic than the mountains of prey.
5 The (C1)stouthearted were plundered,
(F1)They sank into sleep;
And none of the (F2)warriors could use his hands.
6 At Your (C1)rebuke, God of Jacob,
Both (F1)(C2)rider and horse were cast into a dead sleep.
7 You, You indeed are (C1)to be feared,
And (C2)who may stand in Your presence, (F1)once You are angry?
8 You caused judgment to be heard from heaven;
The earth (C1)feared and was still
9 When God (C1)arose to judgment,
To save all the humble of the earth. Selah
10 For the (F1)(C1)wrath of mankind shall praise You;
You will encircle Yourself with a remnant of wrath.
11 (C1)Make vows to the LORD your God and (C2)fulfill them;
All who are around Him are to (C3)bring gifts to Him who is to be feared.
12 He will cut off the spirit of princes;
He is (F1)(C1)feared by the kings of the earth.
Chapter 77
Comfort in Trouble from Recalling God's Mighty Deeds.
1 My voice rises to God, and I will (C1)cry aloud;
My voice rises to God, and He will listen to me.
2 In the (C1)day of my trouble I sought the Lord;
(C2)In the night my (C3)hand was stretched out and did not grow weary;
My soul (C4)refused to be comforted.
3 When I remember God, then I am (C1)restless;
When I (C2)sigh, then (C3)my spirit feels weak. Selah
4 You have held my eyelids open;
I am so troubled that I (C1)cannot speak.
5 I have considered the (C1)days of old,
The years of long ago.
6 I will remember my (C1)song in the night;
I (C2)will meditate with my heart,
And my spirit (F1)ponders:
7 Will the Lord (C1)reject forever?
And will He (C2)never be favorable again?
8 Has His (C1)favor ceased forever?
Has His (F1)(C2)promise come to an end (F2)forever?
9 Has God (C1)forgotten to be gracious,
Or has He in anger (F1)withdrawn His (C2)compassion? Selah
10 Then I said, "(C1)It is my (F1)grief,
That the (C2)right hand of the Most High has changed."
11 I shall remember the (C1)deeds of (F1)the LORD;
I will certainly (C1)remember Your wonders of old.
12 I will (C1)meditate on all Your work,
And on Your deeds with thanksgiving.
13 Your way, God, is (C1)holy;
(C2)What god is great like our God?
14 You are the (C1)God who works wonders;
You have (C2)made known Your strength among the peoples.
15 By Your (F1)power You have (C1)redeemed Your people,
The sons of Jacob and (C2)Joseph. Selah
16 The (C1)waters saw You, God;
The waters saw You, they were in anguish;
The ocean depths also trembled.
17 The (C1)clouds poured out water;
The skies (F1)(C2)sounded out;
Your (C3)arrows (F2)flashed here and there.
18 The (C1)sound of Your thunder was in the whirlwind;
The (C2)lightning lit up the world;
The (C3)earth trembled and shook.
19 Your (C1)way was in the sea
And Your paths in the mighty waters,
And Your footprints were not known.
20 You (C1)led Your people like a flock
By the hand of (C2)Moses and Aaron.
