30:1 [A psalm by David sung at the dedication of the temple.] I will honor you highly, O LORD, because you have pulled me out [of the pit] and have not let my enemies rejoice over me.
30:2 O LORD my God, I cried out to you for help, and you healed me.
30:3 O LORD, you brought me up from the grave. You called me back to life from among those who had gone into the pit.
30:4 Make music to praise the LORD, you faithful people who belong to him. Remember his holiness by giving thanks.
30:5 His anger lasts only a moment. His favor lasts a lifetime. Weeping may last for the night, but there is a song of joy in the morning.
30:6 When all was well with me, I said, "I will never be shaken."
30:7 O LORD, by your favor you have made my mountain stand firm. When you hid your face, I was terrified.
30:8 I will cry out to you, O LORD. I will plead to the Lord for mercy:
30:9 "How will you profit if my blood is shed, if I go into the pit? Will the dust [of my body] give thanks to you? Will it tell about your truth?"
30:10 Hear, O LORD, and have pity on me! O LORD, be my helper!
30:11 You have changed my sobbing into dancing. You have removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy
30:12 so that my soul may praise you with music and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks to you forever.
