Psalms 77:12-14

Context

77:12 I will think about all you have done;

I will reflect upon your deeds!”

77:13 1 O God, your deeds are extraordinary! 2 

What god can compare to our great God? 3 

77:14 You are the God who does amazing things;

you have revealed your strength among the nations.

1 sn Verses 13-20 are the content of the psalmist’s reflection (see vv. 11-12). As he thought about God’s work in Israel’s past, he reached the place where he could confidently cry out for God’s help (see v. 1).

2 tn Heb “O God, in holiness [is] your way.” God’s “way” here refers to his actions. “Holiness” is used here in the sense of “set apart, unique,” rather than in a moral/ethical sense. As the next line and the next verse emphasize, God’s deeds are incomparable and set him apart as the one true God.

3 tn Heb “Who [is] a great god like God?” The rhetorical question assumes the answer, “No one!”
