Psalmen 77
Petrus Canisius Bible, 1939 (De Heilige Schrift)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1Voor muziekbegeleiding; voor Jedoetoen. Een psalm van Asaf. Luide roep ik tot Jahweh; Luide tot God, opdat Hij mij hore!
1Understanding for Asaph. Attend, O my people, to my law: incline your ears to the words of my mouth.
2Overdag zoek ik in mijn benauwdheid den Heer, ‘s Nachts strekken mijn handen zich uit, onvermoeid.
2I will open my mouth in parables: I will utter propositions from the beginning.
3Mijn ziel weigert troost: denk ik aan God, ik moet kreunen; Peins ik na, mijn geest is verslagen.
3How great things have we heard and known, and our fathers have told us.
4Ik kan mijn ogen niet sluiten, En van onrust niet spreken.
4They have not been hidden from their children, in another generation. Declaring the praises of the Lord, and his powers, and his wonders which he hath done.
5Ik denk aan de oude dagen terug, En herinner me weer de vroegere jaren;
5And he set up a testimony in Jacob: and made a law in Israel. How great things he commanded our fathers, that they should make the same known to their children:
6Ik lig er ‘s nachts over te peinzen, Te klagen, en in mijn gedachten te tobben.
6That another generation might know them. The children that should be born and should rise up, and declare them to their children.
7Zou de Heer dan voor altijd verstoten, En nooit genadig meer zijn;
7That they may put their hope in God and may not forget the works of God: and may seek his commandments.
8Zou zijn liefde voorgoed zijn verdwenen, Zijn belofte verbroken, die Hij deed van geslacht tot geslacht;
8That they may not become like their fathers, a perverse and exasperating generation. A generation that set not their heart aright: and whose spirit was not faithful to God.
9Zou God zijn vergeten, Zich te ontfermen, Of in zijn toorn zijn hart hebben gesloten?
9The sons of Ephraim who bend and shoot with the bow: they have turned back in the day of battle.
10Maar ik sprak: Neen, dìt werp ik ver van mij af, Dat de hand van den Allerhoogste veranderd zou zijn!
10They kept not the covenant of God: and in his law they would not walk.
11Ik dacht dus aan uw daden, o Jahweh, Dacht terug aan uw vroegere wonderen;
11And they forgot his benefits, and his wonders that he had shewn them.
12Peinsde over al uw werken, Overwoog, wat door U is verricht.
12Wonderful things did he do in the sight of their fathers, in the land of Egypt, in the field of Tanis.
13Ja, uw weg was heilig, o God; Welke God was ontzaglijk als Jahweh!
13He divided the sea and brought them through: and he made the waters to stand as in a vessel.
14Gij waart de God, die wonderen wrochtte, En uw macht aan de heidenen toonde!
14And he conducted them with a cloud by day: and all the night with a light of fire.
15Gij hebt door uw arm uw volk verlost, De zonen van Jakob en Josef!
15He struck the rock in the wilderness: and gave them to drink, as out of the great deep.
16De wateren zagen U, o God, De wateren zagen U en beefden, Zelfs de zeeën begonnen te rillen;
16He brought forth water out of the rock: and made streams run down as rivers.
17De wolken goten stromen neer, Het zwerk daverde en dreunde, Langs alle kant vlogen uw schichten rond.
17And they added yet more sin against him: they provoked the most High to wrath in the place without water.
18Uw donder kraakte en rolde, Uw bliksems verlichtten de wereld, De aarde rilde en beefde!
18And they tempted God in their hearts, by asking meat for their desires.
19Uw weg liep midden door de zee, Uw pad door onstuimige wateren; Toch bleven uw sporen onzichtbaar!
19And they spoke ill of God: they said: Can God furnish a table in the wilderness?
20Zo hebt Gij uw volk als schapen geleid, Door de hand van Moses en Aäron!
20Because he struck the rock, and the waters gushed out, and the streams overflowed. Can he also give bread, or provide a table for his people?
