←Prev   Psalms 30 as rendered by/in  Next→ 



30:1  I will extol You, O Lord, for You have lifted me up and have not let my foes rejoice over me.
30:2  O Lord my God, I cried to You and You have healed me.
30:3  O Lord, You have brought my life up from Sheol (the place of the dead); You have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit (the grave).
30:4  Sing to the Lord, O you saints of His, and give thanks at the remembrance of His holy name.
30:5  For His anger is but for a moment, but His favor is for a lifetime or in His favor is life. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.
30:6  As for me, in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved.
30:7  By Your favor, O Lord, You have established me as a strong mountain; You hid Your face, and I was troubled.
30:8  I cried to You, O Lord, and to the Lord I made supplication.
30:9  What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit (the grave)? Will the dust praise You? Will it declare Your truth and faithfulness to men?
30:10  Hear, O Lord, have mercy and be gracious to me! O Lord, be my helper!
30:11  You have turned my mourning into dancing for me; You have put off my sackcloth and girded me with gladness,
30:12  To the end that my tongue and my heart and everything glorious within me may sing praise to You and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks to You forever.
