Psa 30 | AB | STEP | I will exalt You, O Lord; for You have lifted me up, and not caused my enemies to rejoice over me.

Psalms 30

For the end, A Psalm and Song at the dedication of the house of David.

1 I will exalt You, O Lord; for You have lifted me up, and not caused my enemies to rejoice over me. 2 O Lord my God, I cried to You, and You healed me. 3 O Lord, You have brought up my soul from Hades, You have delivered me from among them that go down to the pit. 4 Sing to the Lord, you His saints, and give thanks for the remembrance of His holiness. 5 For anger is in His wrath, but life in His favor; weeping shall tarry for the evening, but joy comes in the morning. 6 And I said in my prosperity, I shall never be moved. 7 O Lord, in Your good pleasure You added strength to my beauty; but You turned away Your face, and I was troubled. 8 To You, O Lord, will I cry; and to my God will I make supplication. 9 What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to destruction? Shall the dust give praise to You? Or shall it declare Your truth? 10 The Lord heard, and had compassion upon me; the Lord has become my helper. 11 You have turned my mourning into joy for me; You have removed my sackcloth, and have clothed me with gladness; 12 that my glory may sing praise to You, and I may not be pierced with sorrow. O Lord my God, I will give thanks to You forever.
