For the Leader; for Jeduthun. A Psalm of Asaph.
2קוֹלִ֣י אֶל־אֱלֹהִ֣ים וְאֶצְעָ֑קָה קוֹלִ֥י אֶל־אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים וְהַאֲזִ֥ין אֵלָֽי׃
koli el-elohim ve'etz'aka koli el-elohim veha'azin elay
I will lift up my voice unto God, an cry; I will lift up my voice unto God, that He may give ear unto me.
3בְּי֥וֹם צָרָתִי֮ אֲדֹנָ֪י דָּ֫רָ֥שְׁתִּי יָדִ֤י ׀ לַ֣יְלָה נִ֭גְּרָה וְלֹ֣א תָפ֑וּג מֵאֲנָ֖ה הִנָּחֵ֣ם נַפְשִֽׁי׃
beyom tzarati adonay darashti yadi layla niggera velo tafug me'ana hinnachem nafshi
In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord; With my hand uplifted, [mine eye] streameth in the night without ceasing; My soul refuseth to be comforted.
4אֶזְכְּרָ֣ה אֱלֹהִ֣ים וְאֶֽהֱמָיָ֑ה אָשִׂ֓יחָה ׀ וְתִתְעַטֵּ֖ף רוּחִ֣י סֶֽלָה׃

When I think thereon, O God, I must moan; When I muse thereon, my spirit fainteth. Selah .
5אָ֭חַזְתָּ שְׁמֻר֣וֹת עֵינָ֑י נִ֝פְעַ֗מְתִּי וְלֹ֣א אֲדַבֵּֽר׃
achazta shemurot enay nif'amti velo adabber
Thou holdest fast the lids of mine eyes; I am troubled, and cannot speak.

I have pondered the days of old, the years of ancient times.
7אֶֽזְכְּרָ֥ה נְגִינָתִ֗י בַּ֫לָּ֥יְלָה עִם־לְבָבִ֥י אָשִׂ֑יחָה וַיְחַפֵּ֥שׂ רוּחִֽי׃
ezkera neginati ballayla im-levavi asicha vaychappes ruchi
In the night I will call to remembrance my song; I will commune with mine own heart; And my spirit maketh diligent search
8הַֽ֭לְעוֹלָמִים יִזְנַ֥ח ׀ אֲדֹנָ֑י וְלֹֽא־יֹסִ֖יף לִרְצ֣וֹת עֽוֹד׃
hal'olamim yiznach adonay velo-yosif lirtzot od
'Will the Lord cast off for ever? And will He be favourable no more?
9הֶאָפֵ֣ס לָנֶ֣צַח חַסְדּ֑וֹ גָּ֥מַר אֹ֝֗מֶר לְדֹ֣ר וָדֹֽר׃
he'afes lanetzach chasdo gamar omer ledor vador
Is His mercy clean gone for ever? Is His promise come to an end for evermore?
10הֲשָׁכַ֣ח חַנּ֣וֹת אֵ֑ל אִם־קָפַ֥ץ בְּ֝אַ֗ף רַחֲמָ֥יו סֶֽלָה׃
hashakhach channot el im-kafatz be'af rachamav sela
Hath God forgotten to be gracious? Hath He in anger shut up his compassions?' Selah

va'omar challoti hi shenot yemin elyon
And I say 'This is my weakness, That the right hand of the Most High could change.
12אזכיר [אֶזְכּ֥וֹר] מַֽעַלְלֵי־יָ֑הּ כִּֽי־אֶזְכְּרָ֖ה מִקֶּ֣דֶם פִּלְאֶֽךָ׃
ezkor ma'alle-yah ki-ezkera mikkedem pil'ekha
I will make mention of the deeds of the LORD; Yea, I will remember Thy wonders of old.
13וְהָגִ֥יתִי בְכָל־פָּעֳלֶ֑ךָ וּֽבַעֲלִ֖ילוֹתֶ֣יךָ אָשִֽׂיחָה׃
vehagiti vekhal-pa'olekha uva'alilotekha asicha
I will meditate also upon all Thy work, And muse on Thy doings.'
14אֱ֭לֹהִים בַּקֹּ֣דֶשׁ דַּרְכֶּ֑ךָ מִי־אֵ֥ל גָּ֝ד֗וֹל כֵּֽאלֹהִֽים׃

raukha mayim elohim raukha mayim yachilu af yirgezu tehomot
The waters saw Thee, O God; The waters saw Thee, they were in pain; The depths also trembled.
18זֹ֤רְמוּ מַ֨יִם ׀ עָב֗וֹת ק֭וֹל נָתְנ֣וּ שְׁחָקִ֑ים אַף־חֲ֝צָצֶ֗יךָ יִתְהַלָּֽכוּ׃
zormu mayim avot kol natnu shechakim af-chatzatzekha yithallakhu
The clouds flooded forth waters; The skies sent out a sound; Thine arrows also went abroad.
