Psalms 30

1 A Psalm. A song for the dedication of the temple. Of David. I will exalt You, O LORD, for You have lifted me up and have not allowed my foes to rejoice over me.

Psalmus Cantici, in finem, in dedicatione domus David. Exaltabo te Domine quoniam suscepisti me: nec delectasti inimicos meos super me.

2 O LORD my God, I cried to You for help, and You healed me.

Domine Deus meus clamavi ad te, et sanasti me.

3 O LORD, You pulled me up from Sheol; You spared me from descending into the Pit. (Sheol h7585)

Domine eduxisti ab inferno animam meam: salvasti me a descendentibus in lacum. (Sheol h7585)

4 Sing to the LORD, O you His saints, and praise His holy name.

Psallite Domino sancti eius: et confitemini memoriae sanctitatis eius.

5 For His anger is fleeting, but His favor lasts a lifetime. Weeping may stay the night, but joy comes in the morning.

Quoniam ira in indignatione eius: et vita in voluntate eius. Ad vesperum demorabitur fletus: et ad matutinum laetitia.

6 In prosperity I said, “I will never be shaken.”

Ego autem dixi in abundantia mea: Non movebor in aeternum.

7 O LORD, You favored me; You made my mountain stand strong. When You hid Your face, I was dismayed.

Domine in voluntate tua, praestitisti decori meo virtutem. Avertisti faciem tuam a me, et factus sum conturbatus.

8 To You, O LORD, I called, and I begged my Lord for mercy:

Ad te Domine clamabo: et ad Deum meum deprecabor.

9 “What gain is there in my bloodshed, in my descent to the Pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it proclaim Your faithfulness?

Quae utilitas in sanguine meo, dum descendo in corruptionem? Numquid confitebitur tibi pulvis, aut annunciabit veritatem tuam?

10 Hear me, O LORD, and have mercy; O LORD, be my helper.”

Audivit Dominus, et misertus est mei: Dominus factus est adiutor meus.

11 You turned my mourning into dancing; You peeled off my sackcloth and clothed me with joy,

Convertisti planctum meum in gaudium mihi: conscidisti saccum meum, et circumdedisti me laetitia:

12 that my heart may sing Your praises and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks forever.

Ut cantet tibi gloria mea: et non compungar: Domine Deus meus in aeternum confitebor tibi.
