30:1 I will exalt you, O Lord, because you lifted me up. You did not let my enemies rejoice over me.
30:2 O Lord my God, I cried out to you, and you healed me.
30:3 Lord, you snatched my life from the grave. You kept me alive so I did not go down into the pit.
30:4 Make music to the Lord, you his favored ones, and give thanks when you remember his holiness,
30:5 for we spend a moment under his anger, but we enjoy a lifetime in his favor. In the evening, weeping comes to stay through the night, but in the morning, there is rejoicing!
30:6 But I—I said in my security, “I will never be knocked down.”
30:7 Lord, in your favor you made strength stand like a mountain for me. Then you hid your face. I was terrified.
30:8 To you, O Lord, I call. To the Lord I cry for mercy:
30:9 “What gain is there in shedding my blood, in sending me down to destruction? Will the dust praise you? Will it proclaim your truth?
30:10 Lord, hear and be merciful to me. Lord, be a helper for me.”
30:11 You turned my mourning into dancing. You removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy,
30:12 so that my whole being may make music to you and not be silent. O Lord my God, I thank you forever.
