◄ Psalm 30 ►
JPS Tanakh 1917 1A Psalm; a Song at the Dedication of the House; of David. 2I will extol thee, O LORD, for Thou hast raised me up, And hast not suffered mine enemies to rejoice over me. 3O LORD my God, I cried unto Thee, and Thou didst heal me; 4O LORD, Thou broughtest up my soul from the nether-world; Thou didst kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. 5Sing praise unto the LORD, O ye His godly ones, And give thanks to His holy name. 6For His anger is but for a moment, His favour is for a life-time; Weeping may tarry for the night, But joy cometh in the morning. 7Now I had said in my security: ‘I shall never be moved.’ 8Thou hadst established, O LORD, in Thy favour my mountain as a stronghold— Thou didst hide Thy face; I was affrighted. 9Unto Thee, O LORD, did I call, And unto the LORD I made supplication: 10‘What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise Thee? Shall it declare Thy truth? 11Hear, O LORD, and be gracious unto me; LORD, be Thou my helper.’ 12Thou didst turn for me my mourning into dancing; Thou didst loose my sackcloth, and gird me with gladness; 13So that my glory may sing praise to Thee, and not be silent; O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto Thee for ever.
