< Psalmorum 30 >
1 Psalmus Cantici, in finem, in dedicatione domus David. Exaltabo te Domine quoniam suscepisti me: nec delectasti inimicos meos super me.
I will extol thee, O Jehovah, for thou have raised me up, and have not made my foes to rejoice over me.
2 Domine Deus meus clamavi ad te, et sanasti me.
O Jehovah my God, I cried to thee, and thou have healed me.
3 Domine eduxisti ab inferno animam meam: salvasti me a descendentibus in lacum. (Sheol )
O Jehovah, thou have brought up my soul from Sheol. Thou have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. (Sheol )
4 Psallite Domino sancti eius: et confitemini memoriae sanctitatis eius.
Sing praise to Jehovah, O ye sanctified of his, and give thanks to his holiness.
5 Quoniam ira in indignatione eius: et vita in voluntate eius. Ad vesperum demorabitur fletus: et ad matutinum laetitia.
For his anger is but for a moment. His favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may tarry for the night, but joy is in the morning.
6 Ego autem dixi in abundantia mea: Non movebor in aeternum.
As for me, I said in my prosperity, I shall never be moved.
7 Domine in voluntate tua, praestitisti decori meo virtutem. Avertisti faciem tuam a me, et factus sum conturbatus.
Thou, Jehovah, of thy favor had made my mountain to stand strong. Thou hid thy face; I was troubled.
8 Ad te Domine clamabo: et ad Deum meum deprecabor.
I cried to thee, O Jehovah, and to Jehovah I made supplication.
9 Quae utilitas in sanguine meo, dum descendo in corruptionem? Numquid confitebitur tibi pulvis, aut annunciabit veritatem tuam?
What profit is there in my blood when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? Shall it declare thy truth?
10 Audivit Dominus, et misertus est mei: Dominus factus est adiutor meus.
Hear, O Jehovah, and have mercy upon me. Jehovah, be thou my helper.
11 Convertisti planctum meum in gaudium mihi: conscidisti saccum meum, et circumdedisti me laetitia:
Thou have turned for me my mourning into dancing. Thou have loosed my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness,
12 Ut cantet tibi gloria mea: et non compungar: Domine Deus meus in aeternum confitebor tibi.
to the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O Jehovah my God, I will give thanks to thee forever.
