Psalmorum 30
1 psalmus cantici in dedicatione domus David exaltabo te Domine quoniam suscepisti me nec delectasti inimicos meos super me
“A psalm of David. To the air of songs for the dedication of a house.” I will extol thee, O LORD! for thou hast lifted me up, And hast not suffered my enemies to rejoice over me.
2 Domine Deus meus clamavi ad te et sanasti me
O Jehovah, my God! I called upon thee, and thou hast healed me!
O LORD! thou hast raised me up from the underworld; Thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. (Sheol h7585)
4 psallite Domino sancti eius et confitemini memoriae sanctitatis eius
Sing unto the LORD, O ye his servants! 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 endureth but a moment, But his favor through life; In the evening sorrow may be a guest, But joy cometh in the morning.
6 ego autem dixi in abundantia mea non movebor in aeternum
I said in my prosperity, “I shall never be moved!”
7 Domine in voluntate tua praestitisti decori meo virtutem avertisti faciem tuam et factus sum conturbatus
Thou, O LORD! by thy favor, hast made my mountain to stand strong; Thou didst hide thy face, and I was troubled!
8 ad te Domine clamabo et ad Deum meum deprecabor
I cried unto thee, O LORD! To the LORD I made supplication:
9 quae utilitas in sanguine meo dum descendo in corruptionem numquid confitebitur tibi pulvis aut adnuntiabit veritatem tuam
“What will my blood profit thee, that I should go down to the pit? Can dust praise thee? Can it declare thy faithfulness?
10 audivit Dominus et misertus est mei Dominus factus est adiutor meus
Hear, O LORD! and have pity upon me! Be thou, LORD! my helper!”
11 convertisti planctum meum in gaudium mihi conscidisti saccum meum et circumdedisti me laetitia
Thou didst turn my mourning into dancing; Thou didst loose my sackcloth, and gird me with gladness.
12 ut cantet tibi gloria mea et non conpungar Domine Deus meus in aeternum confitebor tibi
Therefore I will sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O Jehovah, my God! I will give thanks to thee for ever!
