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 angera 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. 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.
