Psalm 30
I will extol You, O Lord, for You have lifted me up, And have
not let my enemies rejoice over me. O Lord my God, I cried
to You for help, and You healed me. O Lord, You have
brought up my soul from Sheol; You have kept me alive,
that I would not go down to the pit. Sing praise to the Lord,
you His godly ones, And give thanks to His holy name. For
His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for a lifetime;
Weeping may last for the night, But a shout of joy comes in
the morning. Now as for me, I said in my prosperity, " will
never be moved." O Lord, by Your favor You have made my
mountain to stand strong; You hid Your face, I was
dismayed. To You, O Lord, I called, And to the Lord I made
supplication: "What profit is there in my blood, if I go down
to the pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it declare Your
faithfulness? "Hear, O Lord, and be gracious to me; O Lord,
be my helper." You have turned for me my mourning into
dancing; You have loosed my sackcloth and girded me with
gladness, That my soul may sing praise to You and not be
silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks to You forever.
