## 📜 Scripture Text (NET)
(The NET Bible: New English Translation. Biblical Studies Press, 2005)
#### For the music director, Jeduthun; a psalm of Asaph.
[[#Verse 01.]] I will cry out to God and call for help.
I will cry out to God and he will pay attention to me.
[[#Verse 02.]] In my time of trouble I sought the Lord.
I kept my hand raised in prayer throughout the night.
I refused to be comforted.
[[#Verse 03.]] I said, “I will remember God while I groan;
I will think about him while my strength leaves me.” (Selah)
[[#Verse 04.]] You held my eyelids open;
I was troubled and could not speak.
[[#Verse 05.]] I thought about the days of old,
about ancient times.
[[#Verse 06.]] I said, “During the night I will remember the song I once sang;
I will think very carefully.”
I tried to make sense of what was happening.
[[#Verse 07.]] I asked, “Will the Lord reject me forever?
Will he never again show me his favor?
[[#Verse 08.]] Has his loyal love disappeared forever?
Has his promise failed forever?
[[#Verse 09.]] Has God forgotten to be merciful?
Has his anger stifled his compassion?” (Selah)
[[#Verse 10.]] Then I said, “I am sickened by the thought
that the Most High might become inactive.
[[#Verse 11.]] I will remember the works of the Lord.
Yes, I will remember the amazing things you did long ago.
[[#Verse 12.]] I will think about all you have done;
I will reflect upon your deeds.”
[[#Verse 13.]] O God, your deeds are extraordinary.
What god can compare to our great God?
[[#Verse 14.]] You are the God who does amazing things;
you have revealed your strength among the nations.
[[#Verse 15.]] You delivered your people by your strength—
the children of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah)
[[#Verse 16.]] The waters saw you, O God,
the waters saw you and trembled.
Yes, the depths of the sea shook with fear.
[[#Verse 17.]] The clouds poured down rain;
the skies thundered.
Yes, your arrows flashed about.
[[#Verse 18.]] Your thunderous voice was heard in the wind;
the lightning bolts lit up the world.
The earth trembled and shook.
[[#Verse 19.]] You walked through the sea;
you passed through the surging waters,
but left no footprints.
[[#Verse 20.]] You led your people like a flock of sheep,
by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
