Tehillim (Psa) 30
30
1A psalm. A song for the dedication of the house. By David:
2I will exalt you, Adonai, because you drew me up;
you didn’t let my enemies rejoice over me.
3Adonai my God, I cried out to you,
and you provided healing for me.
4Adonai, you lifted me up from Sh’ol;
you kept me alive when I was sinking into a pit.
5Sing praise to Adonai, you faithful of his;
and give thanks on recalling his holiness.
6For his anger is momentary,
but his favor lasts a lifetime.
Tears may linger for the night,
but with dawn come cries of joy.
7Once I was prosperous and used to say,
that nothing could ever shake me —
8when you showed me favor, Adonai,
I was firm as a mighty mountain.
But when you hid your face,
I was struck with terror.
9I called to you, Adonai;
to Adonai I pleaded for mercy:
10“What advantage is there in my death,
in my going down to the pit?
Can the dust praise you?
Can it proclaim your truth?
11Hear me, Adonai, and show me your favor!
Adonai, be my helper!”
12You turned my mourning into dancing!
You removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy,
13so that my well-being can praise you and not be silent;
Adonai my God, I will thank you forever!

Psalm 30
A psalm by David sung at the dedication of the temple.
1I will honor you highly, O Lord,
because you have pulled me out ⌞of the pit⌟
and have not let my enemies rejoice over me.
2O Lord my God,
I cried out to you for help,
and you healed me.
3O Lord, you brought me up from the grave.
You called me back to life
from among those who had gone into the pit.
4Make music to praise the Lord, you faithful people who belong to him.
Remember his holiness by giving thanks.
5His anger lasts only a moment.
His favor lasts a lifetime.
Weeping may last for the night,
but there is a song of joy in the morning.
6When all was well with me, I said,
“I will never be shaken.”
7O Lord, by your favor you have made my mountain stand firm.
When you hid your face, I was terrified.
8I will cry out to you, O Lord.
I will plead to the Lord for mercy:
9“How will you profit if my blood is shed,
if I go into the pit?
Will the dust ⌞of my body⌟ give thanks to you?
Will it tell about your truth?”
10Hear, O Lord, and have pity on me!
O Lord, be my helper!
11You have changed my sobbing into dancing.
You have removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy
12so that my soul #30:12 Or “glory.” may praise you with music and not be silent.
O Lord my God, I will give thanks to you forever.
