Psalms 77

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

For the choirmaster. According to Jeduthun. A Psalm of Asaph.

1I cried out to God; I cried aloud to God to hear me.

2In the day of trouble I sought the Lord; through the night my outstretched hands did not grow weary; my soul refused to be comforted.

3I remembered You, O God, and I groaned; I mused and my spirit grew faint. Selah
