< Psalms 30 >
1 A PSALM. A SONG OF THE DEDICATION OF THE HOUSE OF DAVID. I exalt You, O YHWH, For You have drawn me up, And have not let my enemies rejoice over me.
2 My God YHWH, I have cried to You, And You heal me.
3 YHWH, You have brought up my soul from Sheol, You have kept me alive, From going down [to] the pit. (Sheol )
4 Sing praise to YHWH, you His saints, And give thanks at the remembrance of His holiness,
5 For—a moment [is] in His anger, Life [is] in His goodwill, At evening remains weeping, and at morning singing.
6 And I have said in my ease, “I am not moved for all time.
7 O YHWH, in Your good pleasure, You have caused strength to remain for my mountain,” You have hidden Your face—I have been troubled.
8 To You, O YHWH, I call, And to YHWH I make supplication.
9 “What gain [is] in my blood? In my going down to corruption? Does dust thank You? Does it declare Your truth?
10 Hear, O YHWH, and favor me, O YHWH, be a helper to me.”
11 You have turned my mourning to dancing for me, You have loosed my sackcloth, And gird me [with] joy.
12 So that glory praises You, and is not silent, O YHWH, my God, I thank You for all time!
