1My cry goes to God! Indeed, I cry to God for help, and for him to listen to me.
1Untuk pemimpin kor. Menurut: Yedutun. Mazmur Asaf. (77-2) Dengan nyaring aku berseru kepada Allah; dengan nyaring aku berseru, dan Ia mendengar aku.
2In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord. My hand was stretched out in the night, and didn’t get tired. My soul refused to be comforted.
2(77-3) Di waktu kesesakan aku berdoa kepada TUHAN; sepanjang malam kuangkat tanganku kepada-Nya tanpa jemu, tetapi hatiku tak mau dihibur.
3I remember God, and I groan. I complain, and my spirit is overwhelmed. Selah.
3(77-4) Bila aku ingat Allah, aku mengaduh, bila aku merenung, hatiku semakin lesu.
4You hold my eyelids open. I am so troubled that I can’t speak.
4(77-5) TUHAN membuat aku tak bisa tidur di waktu malam, aku gelisah sehingga tak dapat berbicara.
5I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.
5(77-6) Kupikirkan hari-hari yang lampau, kuingat-ingat dan kurenungkan tahun-tahun yang silam.
6I remember my song in the night. I consider in my own heart; my spirit diligently inquires:
6(77-7) Di waktu malam aku berpikir-pikir, dan bertanya-tanya dalam hati,
7“Will the Lord reject us forever? Will he be favorable no more?
7(77-8) "Untuk selamanyakah TUHAN menolak dan tidak berkenan lagi?
8Has his loving kindness vanished forever? Does his promise fail for generations?
8(77-9) Apakah Ia sudah berhenti mengasihi kami? Tidakkah Ia memenuhi janji-Nya lagi?
9Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he, in anger, withheld his compassion?” Selah.
9(77-10) Sudah lupakah Allah untuk mengasihani? Marahkah Ia, sehingga tidak berbelaskasihan lagi?"
10Then I thought, “I will appeal to this: the years of the right hand of the Most High.”
10(77-11) Lalu aku berkata, "Inilah yang menyakiti hatiku, bahwa Yang Mahatinggi tidak berkuasa lagi."
11I will remember Yah’s deeds; for I will remember your wonders of old.
11(77-12) Aku mau mengingat perbuatan-perbuatan-Mu TUHAN, mengenang keajaiban-keajaiban-Mu di zaman dahulu.
12I will also meditate on all your work, and consider your doings.
12(77-13) Aku mau merenungkan segala yang Kaulakukan, dan memikirkan karya-karya-Mu yang hebat.
13Your way, God, is in the sanctuary. What god is great like God?
13(77-14) Ya Allah, segala perbuatan-Mu suci, siapakah sebesar Allah kami?
14You are the God who does wonders. You have made your strength known among the peoples.
14(77-15) Engkaulah Allah yang melakukan keajaiban, kuasa-Mu telah Kaunyatakan di antara bangsa-bangsa.
15You have redeemed your people with your arm, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.
15(77-16) Dengan kekuatan-Mu Kaubebaskan umat-Mu, keturunan Yakub dan Yusuf.
16The waters saw you, God. The waters saw you, and they writhed. The depths also convulsed.
16(77-17) Melihat Engkau, ya Allah, air menjadi gentar, ya, dasar laut pun gemetar.
17The clouds poured out water. The skies resounded with thunder. Your arrows also flashed around.
17(77-18) Awan mencurahkan hujan, guntur mengguruh; halilintar menyambar ke segala arah.
18The voice of your thunder was in the whirlwind. The lightnings lit up the world. The earth trembled and shook.
18(77-19) Guntur menggelegar, kilat berpijar, bumi goncang dan gemetar.
19Your way was through the sea; your paths through the great waters. Your footsteps were not known.
19(77-20) Engkau berjalan melalui ombak, mengarungi lautan, tetapi jejak-Mu tak tampak.
20You led your people like a flock, by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
20(77-21) Seperti gembala Engkau menuntun umat-Mu, dengan perantaraan Musa dan Harun.
