Psalms 30

1 A Psalm [and] Song, [at] the dedication of the house of David. I will extol thee, O LORD; for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.

大衛在獻殿的時候，作這詩歌。 耶和華啊，我要尊崇你， 因為你曾提拔我，不叫仇敵向我誇耀。

2 O LORD my God, I cried to thee, and thou hast healed me.

耶和華－我的上帝啊， 我曾呼求你，你醫治了我。

3 O LORD, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. (Sheol h7585)

耶和華啊，你曾把我的靈魂從陰間救上來， 使我存活，不至於下坑。 (Sheol h7585)

4 Sing to the LORD, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.

耶和華的聖民哪，你們要歌頌他， 稱讚他可記念的聖名。

5 For his anger [endureth but] a moment; in his favor [is] life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy [cometh] in the morning.

因為，他的怒氣不過是轉眼之間； 他的恩典乃是一生之久。 一宿雖然有哭泣， 早晨便必歡呼。

6 And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved.

至於我，我凡事平順，便說： 我永不動搖。

7 LORD, by thy favor thou hast made my mountain to stand strong: thou didst hide thy face, [and] I was troubled.

耶和華啊，你曾施恩，叫我的江山穩固； 你掩了面，我就驚惶。

8 I cried to thee, O LORD; and to the LORD I made supplication.

耶和華啊，我曾求告你； 我向耶和華懇求，說：

9 What profit [is there] in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?

我被害流血，下到坑中，有甚麼益處呢？ 塵土豈能稱讚你，傳說你的誠實嗎？

10 Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me: LORD, be thou my helper.

耶和華啊，求你應允我，憐恤我！ 耶和華啊，求你幫助我！

11 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;

你已將我的哀哭變為跳舞， 將我的麻衣脫去，給我披上喜樂，

12 To the end that [my] glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks to thee for ever.

好叫我的靈歌頌你，並不住聲。 耶和華－我的上帝啊，我要稱謝你，直到永遠！
