Psalmorum 30
1 Psalmus cantici, in dedicatione domus David. Exaltabo te, Domine, quoniam suscepisti me, nec delectasti inimicos meos super me.
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.
2 Domine Deus meus, clamavi ad te, et sanasti me.
O LORD my God, I cried to You for help, and You healed me.
O LORD, You pulled me up from Sheol; You spared me from descending into the Pit. (Sheol h7585)
4 Psallite Domino, sancti ejus; et confitemini memoriæ sanctitatis ejus.
Sing to the LORD, O you His saints, and praise His holy name.
5 Quoniam ira in indignatione ejus, et vita in voluntate ejus: ad vesperum demorabitur fletus, et ad matutinum lætitia.
For His anger is fleeting, but His favor lasts a lifetime. Weeping may stay the night, but joy comes in the morning.
6 Ego autem dixi in abundantia mea: Non movebor in æternum.
In prosperity I said, “I will never be shaken.”
7 Domine, in voluntate tua præstitisti decori meo virtutem; avertisti faciem tuam a me, et factus sum conturbatus.
O LORD, You favored me; You made my mountain stand strong. When You hid Your face, I was dismayed.
8 Ad te, Domine, clamabo, et ad Deum meum deprecabor.
To You, O LORD, I called, and I begged my Lord for mercy:
9 Quæ utilitas in sanguine meo, dum descendo in corruptionem? numquid confitebitur tibi pulvis, aut annuntiabit veritatem tuam?
“What gain is there in my bloodshed, in my descent to the Pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it proclaim Your faithfulness?
10 Audivit Dominus, et misertus est mei; Dominus factus est adjutor meus.
Hear me, O LORD, and have mercy; O LORD, be my helper.”
11 Convertisti planctum meum in gaudium mihi; conscidisti saccum meum, et circumdedisti me lætitia:
You turned my mourning into dancing; You peeled off my sackcloth and clothed me with joy,
12 ut cantet tibi gloria mea, et non compungar. Domine Deus meus, in æternum confitebor tibi.
that my heart may sing Your praises and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks forever.
