Psalm 30 - New International Version, 2011 bible

Psalm 30

¹A psalm. A song. For the dedication of the temple. [48] Of David. [1] I will exalt you, LORD, for you lifted me out of the depths and did not let my enemies gloat over me.

² LORD my God, I called to you for help, and you healed me.

³You, LORD, brought me up from the realm of the dead; you spared me from going down to the pit.

⁴Sing the praises of the LORD, you his faithful people; praise his holy name.

⁵For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning.

⁶When I felt secure, I said, “I will never be shaken.”

⁷ LORD, when you favored me, you made my royal mountain [49] stand firm; but when you hid your face, I was dismayed.

⁸To you, LORD, I called; to the Lord I cried for mercy:

⁹“What is gained if I am silenced, if I go down to the pit? Will the dust praise you? Will it proclaim your faithfulness?

¹⁰Hear, LORD, and be merciful to me; LORD, be my help.”

¹¹You turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy,

¹²that my heart may sing your praises and not be silent. LORD my God, I will praise you forever.
