⁴ You hold my eyelids open;
    I am so ^(I)troubled that I cannot speak.
⁵ I consider ^(J)the days of old,
    the years long ago.
⁶ I said,^[a] “Let me remember my ^(K)song in the night;
    let me ^(L)meditate in my heart.”
    Then my spirit made a diligent search:
⁷ “Will the Lord ^(M)spurn forever,
    and never again ^(N)be favorable?
⁸ Has his steadfast love forever ceased?
    Are his ^(O)promises at an end for all time?
^9 (P)Has God forgotten to be gracious?
    ^(Q)Has he in anger shut up his compassion?” Selah

¹⁰ Then I said, “I will appeal to this,
    to the years of the ^(R)right hand of the Most High.”^[b]

¹¹ I will remember the deeds of the Lord;
    yes, I will ^(S)remember your wonders of old.
¹² I will ponder all your ^(T)work,
    and meditate on your ^(U)mighty deeds.
¹³ Your way, O God, is ^(V)holy.
    ^(W)What god is great like our God?
¹⁴ You are the God who ^(X)works wonders;
    you have ^(Y)made known your might among the peoples.
¹⁵ You ^(Z)with your arm redeemed your people,
    the children of Jacob and Joseph. Selah

¹⁶ When ^(AA)the waters saw you, O God,
    when the waters saw you, they were afraid;
    indeed, the deep trembled.
¹⁷ The clouds poured out water;
    the skies ^(AB)gave forth thunder;
    your ^(AC)arrows flashed on every side.
^18 (AD)The crash of your thunder was in the whirlwind;
    ^(AE)your lightnings lighted up the world;
    the earth ^(AF)trembled and shook.
¹⁹ Your ^(AG)way was through the sea,
    your path through the great waters;
    yet your footprints ^(AH)were unseen.^[c]
20 You ^(AI)led your people like a flock
    by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
