Listen to this chapter • 2:32

[1] I cry aloud to God, aloud to God, and he will hear me.

[2] In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord; in the night my hand is stretched out without wearying; my soul refuses to be comforted.

[3] When I remember God, I moan; when I meditate, my spirit faints. Selah

[4] You hold my eyelids open; I am so troubled that I cannot speak.

[5] I consider the days of old, the years long ago.

[6] I said, “Let me remember my song in the night; let me meditate in my heart.” Then my spirit made a diligent search:

[7] “Will the Lord spurn forever, and never again be favorable?

[8] Has his steadfast love forever ceased? Are his promises at an end for all time?

[9] Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he in anger shut up his compassion?” Selah

[10] Then I said, “I will appeal to this, to the years of the right hand of the Most High.”

[11] I will remember the deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your wonders of old.

[12] I will ponder all your work, and meditate on your mighty deeds.

[13] Your way, O God, is holy. What god is great like our God?

[14] You are the God who works wonders; you have made known your might among the peoples.

[15] You with your arm redeemed your people, the children of Jacob and Joseph. Selah

[16] When 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 gave forth thunder; your arrows flashed on every side.

[18] The crash of your thunder was in the whirlwind; your lightnings lighted up the world; the earth trembled and shook.

[19] Your way was through the sea, your path through the great waters; yet your footprints were unseen.

[20] You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
