2In the day of trouble I sought the Lord;
through the night my outstretched hands did not grow weary;
my soul refused to be comforted.
3I remembered You, O God, and I groaned;
I mused and my spirit grew faint.
4You have kept my eyes from closing;
I am too troubled to speak.
5I considered the days of old,
the years long in the past.
6At night I remembered my song;
in my heart I mused, and my spirit pondered:
7“Will the Lord spurn us forever
and never show His favor again?
8Is His loving devotion gone forever?
Has His promise failed for all time?
9Has God forgotten to be gracious?
Has His anger shut off His compassion?”
10So I said, “I am grieved
that the right hand of the Most High has changed.”
— Psalm 77:2-10
