The Consoling Memory of God’s Redemptive Works
To the Chief Musician. To Jeduthun. A Psalm of Asaph.
My hand was stretched out in the night without ceasing;
My soul refused to be comforted.
I meditate within my heart,
And my spirit1 makes diligent search.
But I will remember the years of the right hand of the Most High.”
| << Psalms 77:2 | Psalms 77:4 >> |
