Psalms 30

    A Psalm. A Song at the dedication of the house of David.
  1. I will extol You, O LORD, for You have lifted me up, And have not let my foes rejoice over me.
  2. O LORD my God, I cried out to You, And You healed me.
  3. O LORD, You brought my soul up from the grave; You have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.[1]
  4. Sing praise to the LORD, you saints of His, And give thanks at the remembrance of His holy name.[2]
  5. For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life; Weeping may endure for a night, But joy comes in the morning.
  6. Now in my prosperity I said, "I shall never be moved."
  7. LORD, by Your favor You have made my mountain stand strong; You hid Your face, and I was troubled.
  8. I cried out to You, O LORD; And to the LORD I made supplication:
  9. "What profit is there in my blood, When I go down to the pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it declare Your truth?
  10. Hear, O LORD, and have mercy on me; LORD, be my helper!"
  11. You have turned for me my mourning into dancing; You have put off my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness,
  12. To the end that my glory may sing praise to You and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks to You forever.
  1. Following Qere and Targum; Kethib, Septuagint, Syriac, and Vulgate read 'from those who descend to the pit'.
  2. Or 'His holiness'
