Psalms 30

A Psalm and Song at the dedication of the house of David.

1I will extolH7311 thee, O YhwhH3068; for thou hast lifted me upH1802, and hast not made my foesH341 to rejoiceH8055 over me.

2O YhwhH3068 my GodH430, I criedH7768 unto thee, and thou hast healedH7495 me.

3O YhwhH3068, thou hast brought upH5927 my soulH5315 from the graveH7585: thou hast kept me aliveH2421, that I should not go downH3381 to the pitH953.

4SingH2167 unto YhwhH3068, O ye saintsH2623 of his, and give thanksH3034 at the remembranceH2143 of his holinessH6944.1

5For his angerH639 endureth but a momentH7281; in his favourH7522 is lifeH2416: weepingH1065 may endureH3885 for a nightH6153, but joyH7440 cometh in the morningH1242.234

6And in my prosperityH7959 I saidH559, I shall neverH5769 be movedH4131.

7YhwhH3068, by thy favourH7522 thou hast made my mountainH2042 to standH5975 strongH5797: thou didst hideH5641 thy faceH6440, and I was troubledH926.5

8I criedH7121 to thee, O YhwhH3068; and unto YhwhH3068 I made supplicationH2603.

9What profitH1215 is there in my bloodH1818, when I go downH3381 to the pitH7845? Shall the dustH6083 praiseH3034 thee? shall it declareH5046 thy truthH571?

10HearH8085, O YhwhH3068, and have mercyH2603 upon me: YhwhH3068, be thou my helperH5826.

11Thou hast turnedH2015 for me my mourningH4553 into dancingH4234: thou hast put offH6605 my sackclothH8242, and girdedH247 me with gladnessH8057;

12To the end that my gloryH3519 may singH2167 praise to thee, and not be silentH1826. O YhwhH3068 my GodH430, I will give thanksH3034 unto thee for everH5769.6
