< Psalmorum 30 >
1 Psalmus Cantici, in finem, 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.
3 Domine eduxisti ab inferno animam meam: salvasti me a descendentibus in lacum. (Sheol )
O LORD, You pulled me up from Sheol; You spared me from descending into the Pit. (Sheol )
4 Psallite Domino sancti eius: et confitemini memoriae sanctitatis eius.
Sing to the LORD, O you His saints, and praise His holy name.
5 Quoniam ira in indignatione eius: et vita in voluntate eius. Ad vesperum demorabitur fletus: et ad matutinum laetitia.
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 aeternum.
In prosperity I said, “I will never be shaken.”
7 Domine in voluntate tua, praestitisti 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 Quae utilitas in sanguine meo, dum descendo in corruptionem? Numquid confitebitur tibi pulvis, aut annunciabit 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 adiutor 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 laetitia:
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 aeternum confitebor tibi.
that my heart may sing Your praises and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks forever.
