Psalms 30 — A Psalm and Song at the dedication of the house of David.

¹I will extol you, O Yahuah (LORD); for you have lifted me up, and have not made my foes to rejoice over me.

²O Yahuah (LORD) my Elohim (God), I cried unto you, and you have healed me.

³O Yahuah (LORD), you have brought up my soul from the grave: you have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

⁴Sing unto Yahuah (LORD), O you saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.

⁵For his anger endures but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.

⁶And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved.

⁷Yahuah (LORD), by your favour you have made my mountain to stand strong: you did hide your face, and I was troubled.

⁸I cried to you, O Yahuah (LORD); and unto Yahuah (LORD) I made supplication.

⁹What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise you? shall it declare your truth?

¹⁰Hear, O Yahuah (LORD), and have mercy upon me: Yahuah (LORD), be you my helper.

¹¹You have turned for me my mourning into dancing: you have put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;

¹²To the end that my glory may sing praise to you, and not be silent. O Yahuah (LORD) my Elohim (God), I will give thanks unto you for ever.
