In the Day of Trouble I Sought the Lord

¹I will cry unto God with my voice, Even unto God with my voice; and he will give ear unto me.+ ²In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: My hand was stretched out in the night, and slacked not; My soul refused to be comforted.+ ³I remember God, and am disquieted: I complain, and my spirit is overwhelmed.[Selah+ ⁴Thou holdest mine eyes watching: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.+ ⁵I have considered the days of old, The years of ancient times.+ ⁶I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart; And my spirit maketh diligent search.+ ⁷Will the Lord cast off for ever? And will he be favorable no more?+ ⁸Is his lovingkindness clean gone for ever? Doth his promise fail for evermore?+ ⁹Hath God forgotten to be gracious? Hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies?[Selah+ ¹⁰And I said, This is my infirmity; [But I will remember] the years of the right hand of the Most High.+ ¹¹I will make mention of the deeds of Jehovah; For I will remember thy wonders of old.+ ¹²I will meditate also upon all thy work, And muse on thy doings.+ ¹³Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: Who is a great god like unto God?+ ¹⁴Thou art the God that doest wonders: Thou hast made known thy strength among the peoples.+ ¹⁵Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, The sons of Jacob and Joseph.[Selah+ ¹⁶The waters saw thee, O God; The waters saw thee, they were afraid: The depths also trembled.+ ¹⁷The clouds poured out water; The skies sent out a sound: Thine arrows also went abroad.+ ¹⁸The voice of thy thunder was in the whirlwind; The lightnings lightened the world: The earth trembled and shook.+ ¹⁹Thy way was in the sea, And thy paths in the great waters, And thy footsteps were not known.+ ²⁰Thou leddest thy people like a flock, By the hand of Moses and Aaron.+
