Psalms 77:6-20

⁶I spend the whole night thinking about things; I meditate, and this is what I ask myself:

⁷“Will the Lord always reject us? Will he never again be pleased with us?

⁸Has he stopped faithfully loving us? Will he not do for us what he promised to do?

⁹God promised to be merciful to us; has he forgotten that? Because he is angry with us, has he decided to not be kind to us?”

¹⁰Then I said, “What causes me to be very sad is that it seems that God, who is greater than any other god, is no longer powerful.”

¹¹But then, Yahweh, I recall/remember your great deeds; I remember the wonderful things that you did in the past.

¹²I meditate on all that you have done, and I think about your mighty acts.

¹³God, everything that you do is holy; there is certainly no god RHQ who is great like you are!

¹⁴You are God, the one who performs miracles; you showed to people of many people-groups that you are powerful.

¹⁵By your power MTY you rescued your people from Egypt; you saved those who were descendants of Jacob and his son Joseph.

¹⁶It was as though the waters of the Red Sea saw you and became very afraid, and even the deepest part of the water shook.

¹⁷Rain poured down from the clouds PRS; it thundered very loudly PRS, and lightning flashed in all directions.

¹⁸Thunder crashed in the whirlwind, and lightning ◄lit up/flashed across► the entire sky HYP; the earth shook violently DOU.

¹⁹Then you walked through the sea on a path that you made through the deep water, but your footprints could not be seen.

²⁰You led your people like a shepherd leads his flock of sheep, while Moses and Aaron were the leaders of your people.
