Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: The residue of wrath shalt thou gird upon thee.

He will cut off the spirit of princes: He is terrible to the kings of the earth.

In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: My hand was stretched out in the night, and slacked not; My soul refused to be comforted.

Thou holdest mine eyes watching: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.

I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart; And my spirit maketh diligent search.

Is his lovingkindness clean gone for ever? Doth his promise fail for evermore?

And I said, This is my infirmity; [But I will remember] the years of the right hand of the Most High.

I will meditate also upon all thy work, And muse on thy doings.

Thou art the God that doest wonders: Thou hast made known thy strength among the peoples.

The waters saw thee, O God; The waters saw thee, they were afraid: The depths also trembled.

The voice of thy thunder was in the whirlwind; The lightnings lightened the world: The earth trembled and shook.

Thou leddest thy people like a flock, By the hand of Moses and Aaron.

I will open my mouth in a parable; I will utter dark sayings of old,

We will not hide them from their children, Telling to the generation to come the praises of Jehovah, And his strength, and his wondrous works that he hath done.

That the generation to come might know [them], even the children that should be born; Who should arise and tell [them] to their children,

And might not be as their fathers, A stubborn and rebellious generation, A generation that set not their heart aright, And whose spirit was not stedfast with God.

They kept not the covenant of God, And refused to walk in his law;

Marvellous things did he in the sight of their fathers, In the land of Egypt, in the field of Zoan.

In the day-time also he led them with a cloud, And all the night with a light of fire.

He brought streams also out of the rock, And caused waters to run down like rivers.

And they tempted God in their heart By asking food according to their desire.

Behold, he smote the rock, so that waters gushed out, And streams overflowed; Can he give bread also? Will he provide flesh for his people?

Because they believed not in God, And trusted not in his salvation.

And he rained down manna upon them to eat, And gave them food from heaven.
