Psalm 30

1. 1

   I will exalt you, O LORD, because you have lifted me up *
   and have not let my enemies triumph over me.

2. 2

   O LORD my God, I cried out to you, *
   and you restored me to health.

3. 3

   You brought me up, O LORD, from the dead; *
   you restored my life as I was going down to the grave.

4. 4

   Sing to the LORD, you servants of his; *
   give thanks for the remembrance of his holiness.

5. 5

   For his wrath endures but the twinkling of an eye, *
   his favor for a lifetime.

6. 6

   Weeping may spend the night, *
   but joy comes in the morning.

7. 7

   While I felt secure, I said, "I shall never be disturbed. *
   You, LORD, with your favor, made me as strong as the mountains."

8. 8

   Then you hid your face, *
   and I was filled with fear.

9. 9

   I cried to you, O LORD; *
   I pleaded with the Lord, saying,

10. 10

    "What profit is there in my blood, if I go down to the Pit? *
    will the dust praise you or declare your faithfulness?

11. 11

    Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me; *
    O LORD, be my helper."

12. 12

    You have turned my wailing into dancing; *
    you have put off my sack-cloth and clothed me with joy.

13. 13

    Therefore my heart sings to you without ceasing; *
    O LORD my God, I will give you thanks for ever.
