Psalm
Psalm, 30
A melody. A song of inauguration of the house. Of David.
1 I will exalt you, O Jehovah, for you have lifted*1 me up; You did not let my enemies rejoice over me.
|
2 O Jehovah my God, I cried to you for help, and you healed me.
3 O Jehovah, you have lifted me*1 up from the Grave.*2 You kept me alive; you spared me from sinking into the pit.*3
|
4 Sing praises*1 to Jehovah, you his loyal ones, Give thanks to his holy name;*2
|
5 Because being under his anger is only for a moment, But being in his favor*1 is for a lifetime. Weeping may come in the evening, but in the morning, there is a joyful cry.
|
6 When I was untroubled, I said: “I will never be shaken.”*1
|
7 O Jehovah, while I was in your favor,*1 you made me as strong as a mountain. But when you hid your face, I became terrified.
|
8 To you, O Jehovah, I kept calling; And to Jehovah, I kept pleading for favor.
9 What profit is there in my death,*1 in my going down to the pit?*2 Will the dust praise you? Will it tell of your faithfulness?
|
10 Hear, O Jehovah, and show me favor. O Jehovah, become my helper.
11 You have changed my mourning into dancing; You have removed my sackcloth, and you clothe me with rejoicing,
12 So that I*1 may sing your praise and not keep silent. O Jehovah my God, I will praise you forever.
