Psalms 30

    Psalm 30[1] A psalm. A song. For the dedication of the temple.[2] Of David.
  1. I will exalt you, LORD, for you lifted me out of the depths and did not let my enemies gloat over me.
  2. LORD my God, I called to you for help, and you healed me.
  3. You, LORD, brought me up from the realm of the dead; you spared me from going down to the pit.
  4. Sing the praises of the LORD, you his faithful people; praise his holy name.
  5. For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning.
  6. When I felt secure, I said, "I will never be shaken."
  7. LORD, when you favored me, you made my royal mountain[3] stand firm; but when you hid your face, I was dismayed.
  8. To you, LORD, I called; to the Lord I cried for mercy:
  9. "What is gained if I am silenced, if I go down to the pit? Will the dust praise you? Will it proclaim your faithfulness?
  10. Hear, LORD, and be merciful to me; LORD, be my help."
  11. You turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy,
  12. that my heart may sing your praises and not be silent. LORD my God, I will praise you forever.
  1. In Hebrew texts 30:1-12 is numbered 30:2-13.
  2. Title: Or 'palace'
  3. That is, Mount Zion
