77 1 The Prophet in the Name of the Church rehearseth the greatness of his affliction, and his grievous temptations, 6 Whereby he was driven to this end to consider his former conversation, 11 and the continual course of God’s works in the preservation of his servants, and so he confirmeth his faith against these temptations.

For the excellent Musician (A)Jeduthun. A Psalm committed to Asaph.

My [a]voice came to God, when I cried: my voice came to God; and he heard me.

In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: [b]my sore ran and ceased not in the night: my soul refused comfort.

I did think upon God, and was [c]troubled: I prayed, and my spirit was full of anguish. Selah.
