Psalm 30
A Psalm and
Song at the dedication of the house of David.
1 I will
extol thee, O Lord; for thou hast lifted me up, and
hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.
2 O Lord my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast
healed me.
3 O Lord, thou hast brought up my soul from the
grave: thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go
down to the pit.
4 Sing unto the Lord, O ye saints of his, and give
thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
5 For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour
is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy
cometh in the morning.
6 And 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.
8 I cried to thee, O Lord; and unto the Lord I made
supplication.
9 What profit is there in my blood, when I go down
to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it
declare thy truth?
10 Hear, O Lord, and have mercy upon me: Lord, be
thou my helper.
11 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing:
thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with
gladness;
12 To 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.
