< Psalms 30 >

1 A Psalme or song of the dedication of the house of David. I will magnifie thee, O Lord: for thou hast exalted mee, and hast not made my foe to reioyce ouer me.
I will extol you, O LORD; for you have lifted me up, and have not made my foes to rejoice over me.
2 O Lord my God, I cried vnto thee, and thou hast restored me.
O LORD my God, I cried unto you, and you have healed me.
3 O Lord, thou hast brought vp my soule out of the graue: thou hast reuiued me from them that goe downe into the pit. (Sheol h7585)
O LORD, you have brought up my soul from the grave: you have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. (Sheol h7585)
4 Sing praises vnto the Lord, ye his Saintes, and giue thankes before the remembrance of his Holinesse.
Sing unto the LORD, O all of you saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
5 For he endureth but a while in his anger: but in his fauour is life: weeping may abide at euening, but ioy commeth in the morning.
For his anger endures but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.
6 And in my prosperitie I sayde, I shall neuer be moued.
And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved.
7 For thou Lord of thy goodnes hadest made my mountaine to stande strong: but thou didest hide thy face, and I was troubled.
LORD, by your favour you have made my mountain to stand strong: you did hide your face, and I was troubled.
8 Then cried I vnto thee, O Lord, and praied to my Lord.
I cried to you, O LORD; and unto the LORD I made supplication.
9 What profite is there in my blood, when I go downe to the pit? shall the dust giue thankes vnto thee? or shall it declare thy trueth?
What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise you? shall it declare your truth?
10 Heare, O Lord, and haue mercy vpon me: Lord, be thou mine helper.
Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me: LORD, be you my helper.
11 Thou hast turned my mourning into ioy: thou hast loosed my sacke and girded mee with gladnesse.
You have turned for me my mourning into dancing: you have put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;
12 Therefore shall my tongue praise thee and not cease: O Lord my God, I will giue thankes vnto thee for euer.
To the end that my glory may sing praise to you, and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto you for ever.
