Psalms 30
1 A psalm of David. A psalm for the dedication of the Temple. I want to tell everyone how good you are, Lord, for you saved me, and you didn't let my enemies triumph over me.
| מִזְמוֹר שִׁיר־חֲנֻכַּת הַבַּיִת לְדָוִֽד׃ אֲרוֹמִמְךָ יְהֹוָה כִּי דִלִּיתָנִי וְלֹֽא־שִׂמַּחְתָּ אֹיְבַי לִֽי׃ |
2 Lord, my God, I called out to you for help, and you have healed me.
| יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהָי שִׁוַּעְתִּי אֵלֶיךָ וַתִּרְפָּאֵֽנִי׃ |
3 Lord, you rescued me from the grave, you brought me back to life, saving me from going down into the pit of death. (Sheol h7585)
| יְֽהֹוָה הֶעֱלִיתָ מִן־שְׁאוֹל נַפְשִׁי חִיִּיתַנִי (מיורדי) [מִיׇּֽרְדִי־]בֽוֹר׃ (Sheol h7585) |
4 You who trust the Lord, sing praises to him, and be thankful for his holy character!
| זַמְּרוּ לַיהֹוָה חֲסִידָיו וְהוֹדוּ לְזֵכֶר קׇדְשֽׁוֹ׃ |
5 For his anger only lasts a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime. You may spend the night in tears, but happiness comes with the morning.
| כִּי רֶגַע ׀ בְּאַפּוֹ חַיִּים בִּרְצוֹנוֹ בָּעֶרֶב יָלִין בֶּכִי וְלַבֹּקֶר רִנָּֽה׃ |
6 When things were going well, I said, “Nothing will ever shake me!”
| וַאֲנִי אָמַרְתִּי בְשַׁלְוִי בַּל־אֶמּוֹט לְעוֹלָֽם׃ |
7 Lord, when you showed me your favor I stood as strong as a mountain; when you turned away from me I was terrified.
| יְֽהֹוָה בִּרְצוֹנְךָ הֶעֱמַדְתָּה לְֽהַרְרִי ־ עֹז הִסְתַּרְתָּ פָנֶיךָ הָיִיתִי נִבְהָֽל׃ |
8 I called out to you for help, Lord. I asked the Lord for grace, saying,
| אֵלֶיךָ יְהֹוָה אֶקְרָא וְאֶל־אֲדֹנָי אֶתְחַנָּֽן׃ |
9 What would you gain if I die, if I go down into the pit of death? Would my dust praise you? Would it tell of your trustworthiness?
| מַה־בֶּצַע בְּדָמִי בְּרִדְתִּי אֶל ־ שָׁחַת הֲיוֹדְךָ עָפָר הֲיַגִּיד אֲמִתֶּֽךָ׃ |
10 Please listen to me, Lord, and be gracious to me! Lord, you are the one who helps me.
| שְׁמַע־יְהֹוָה וְחׇנֵּנִי יְהֹוָה הֱֽיֵה־עֹזֵר לִֽי׃ |
11 You have turned my weeping into dancing. You have taken off my clothes of sackcloth and dressed me in happiness,
| הָפַכְתָּ מִסְפְּדִי לְמָחוֹל לִי פִּתַּחְתָּ שַׂקִּי וַֽתְּאַזְּרֵנִי שִׂמְחָֽה׃ |
12 so I can sing praises to you and not keep quiet. Lord my God, I will thank you forever!
| לְמַעַן ׀ יְזַמֶּרְךָ כָבוֹד וְלֹא יִדֹּם יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהַי לְעוֹלָם אוֹדֶֽךָּ׃ |
