Psalms 30:5-12

Psalms 30:5-12 NET

For his anger lasts only a brief moment, and his good favor restores one’s life. One may experience sorrow during the night, but joy arrives in the morning. In my self-confidence I said, “I will never be upended.” O LORD, in your good favor you made me secure. Then you rejected me and I was terrified. To you, O LORD, I cried out; I begged the Lord for mercy: “What profit is there in taking my life, in my descending into the Pit? Can the dust of the grave praise you? Can it declare your loyalty? Hear, O LORD, and have mercy on me! O LORD, deliver me!” Then you turned my lament into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and covered me with joy. So now my heart will sing to you and not be silent; O LORD my God, I will always give thanks to you.
