Psalms 30

PSALM 30
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
A Psalm and Song at the dedication of the house of David.
1Lord, I will thee extol, for thou
hast lifted me on high,
And over me thou to rejoice
mad'st not mine enemy.
2O thou who art the Lord my God,
I in distress to thee,
With loud cries lifted up my voice,
and thou hast healed me.
3O Lord, my soul thou hast brought up,
and rescu'd from the grave;
That I to pit should not go down,
alive thou didst me save.
4O ye that are his holy ones,
sing praise unto the Lord;
And give unto him thanks, when ye
his holiness record.
5For but a moment lasts his wrath;
life in his favour lies:
Weeping may for a night endure,
at morn doth joy arise.
6In my prosperity I said,
that nothing shall me move.
7O Lord, thou hast my mountain made
to stand strong by thy love:
But when that thou,
O gracious God,
didst hide thy face from me,
Then quickly was my prosp'rous state
turn'd into misery.
8Wherefore unto the Lord my cry
I caused to ascend:
My humble supplication
I to the Lord did send.
9What profit is there in my blood,
when I go down to pit?
Shall unto thee the dust give praise?
thy truth declare shall it?
10Hear, Lord, have mercy; help me, Lord:
11Thou turned hast my sadness
To dancing; yea, my sackcloth loos'd,
and girded me with gladness;
12That sing thy praise my glory may,
and never silent be.
O Lord my God, for evermore
I will give thanks to thee.

Tehillim (Psalms) 30
30
1I exalt You, O יהוה, for You have drawn me up, And have not let my enemies rejoice over me.
2יהוה my Elohim, I have cried to You, And You have healed me.
3יהוה, You brought me up from She’ol; You have kept me alive, from going down into the pit.
4Sing praise to יהוה, You lovingly-committed ones of His, And give thanks at the remembrance of His Set-apartness.
5For His displeasure is for a moment, His delight is for life; Weeping might last for the night, But joy comes in the morning.
6As for me, I have said in my ease, “Never would I be shaken!”
7יהוה, in Your good pleasure You have made my mountain to stand strong; You hid Your face, and I was troubled.
8I cried out to You, O יהוה; And to יהוה I prayed:
9“What gain is there in my blood, When I go down to the pit? Would dust praise You? Would it declare Your truth?
10“Hear, O יהוה, and show me favour; יהוה, be my helper!”
11You have turned my mourning into dancing for me; You have torn off my sackcloth and girded me with gladness,
12So that esteem might praise You and not be silent. O יהוה my Elohim, I thank You forever.
