16 The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they were afraid: the depths also were troubled.
16 The waters saw you, God, the waters saw you and writhed; the very depths were convulsed.
16 When the waters saw you, O God, when the waters saw you, they were afraid; indeed, the deep trembled.
16 Ocean saw you in action, God, saw you and trembled with fear; Deep Ocean was scared to death.
16 The waters saw You, O God; The waters saw You, they were afraid; The depths also trembled.
16 When the Red Sea saw you, OÂ God, its waters looked and trembled! The sea quaked to its very depths.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 77:16
Commentary on Psalm 77:11-20
(Read Psalm 77:11-20)
The remembrance of the works of God, will be a powerful remedy against distrust of his promise and goodness; for he is God, and changes not. God's way is in the sanctuary. We are sure that God is holy in all his works. God's ways are like the deep waters, which cannot be fathomed; like the way of a ship, which cannot be tracked. God brought Israel out of Egypt. This was typical of the great redemption to be wrought out in the fulness of time, both by price and power. If we have harboured doubtful thoughts, we should, without delay, turn our minds to meditate on that God, who spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, that with him, he might freely give us all things.
