Psalms 30
30
Psalm 30#In Hebrew texts 30:1-12 is numbered 30:2-13.
A psalm. A song. For the dedication of the temple.#Title: Or palace Of David.
1I will exalt you, Lord,
for you lifted me out of the depths
and did not let my enemies gloat over me.
2 Lord my God, I called to you for help,
and you healed me.
3You, Lord, brought me up from the realm of the dead;
you spared me from going down to the pit.
4Sing the praises of the Lord, you his faithful people;
praise his holy name.
5For his anger lasts only a moment,
but his favor lasts a lifetime;
weeping may stay for the night,
but rejoicing comes in the morning.
6When I felt secure, I said,
“I will never be shaken.”
7 Lord, when you favored me,
you made my royal mountain#30:7 That is, Mount Zion stand firm;
but when you hid your face,
I was dismayed.
8To you, Lord, I called;
to the Lord I cried for mercy:
9“What is gained if I am silenced,
if I go down to the pit?
Will the dust praise you?
Will it proclaim your faithfulness?
10Hear, Lord, and be merciful to me;
Lord, be my help.”
11You turned my wailing into dancing;
you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy,
12that my heart may sing your praises and not be silent.
Lord my God, I will praise you forever.

Psalm 30
30
A Psalm and Song at the dedication of the house of David.
1I will extol thee, O LORD; for thou hast lifted me up,
And hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.
2O LORD my God,
I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.
3O LORD, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave:
Thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.
4Sing unto the LORD, O ye saints of his,
And give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
5For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life:
Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.
6And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved.
7 LORD, by thy favour thou hast made my mountain to stand strong:
Thou didst hide thy face, and I was troubled.
8I cried to thee, O LORD;
And unto the LORD I made supplication.
9What profit is there in my blood,
When I go down to the pit?
Shall the dust praise thee?
Shall it declare thy truth?
10Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me:
LORD, be thou my helper.
11Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing:
Thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;
12To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent.
O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.
