77:1 For the Chief Musician. To Jeduthun. A Psalm by Asaph. My cry goes to God! Indeed, I cry to God for help, and for him to listen to me.
3 In die tribulationis meæ Deum exquisivi; manibus meis nocte contra eum, et non sum deceptus. Renuit consolari anima mea;
77:2 Al Señor busqué en el día de mi angustia: mi mal corría de noche, y no cesaba: mi alma rehusaba consuelo.
77:2 In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord. My hand was stretched out in the night, and didn’t get tired. My soul refused to be comforted.

77:3 Acordábame de Dios, y gritaba: quejábame, y desmayaba mi espíritu. (Selah.)

77:6 Acordábame de mis canciones de noche; meditaba con mi corazón, y mi espíritu inquiría.
77:6 I remember my song in the night. I consider in my own heart; my spirit diligently inquires:
8 Numquid in æternum projiciet Deus? aut non apponet ut complacitior sit adhuc?
77:7 ¿Desechará el Señor para siempre, y no volverá más á amar?
77:7 “Will the Lord reject us forever? Will he be favorable no more?
9 aut in finem misericordiam suam abscindet, a generatione in generationem?
77:8 ¿Hase acabado para siempre su misericordia? ¿hase acabado la palabra suya para generación y generación?
77:8 Has his loving kindness vanished forever? Does his promise fail for generations?

77:9 ¿Ha olvidado Dios el tener misericordia? ¿ha encerrado con ira sus piedades? (Selah.)
77:9 Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he, in anger, withheld his compassion?” Selah.

77:10 Then I thought, “I will appeal to this: the years of the right hand of the Most High.”

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations). Verse numbers below follow the Hebrew/English numbering: 77.
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
The Jews are wont to glory in this Psalm which we have sung, saying, "Known in Judæa is God, in Israel great is the name of Him:" and to revile the Gentiles to whom God is not known, and to say that to themselves alone God is known; seeing that the Prophet saith, "Known in Judæa is God." In other …
