< 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 of the dedication of the house of David. I exalt Thee, O Jehovah, For Thou hast drawn me up, and hast not let mine enemies rejoice over me.
2 Domine Deus meus clamavi ad te et sanasti me
Jehovah my God, I have cried to Thee, And Thou dost heal me.
3 Domine eduxisti ab inferno animam meam salvasti me a descendentibus in lacum (Sheol )
Jehovah, Thou hast brought up from Sheol my soul, Thou hast kept me alive, From going down [to] the pit. (Sheol )
4 psallite Domino sancti eius et confitemini memoriae sanctitatis eius
Sing praise to Jehovah, ye His saints, And give thanks at the remembrance of His holiness,
5 quoniam ira in indignatione eius et vita in voluntate eius ad vesperum demorabitur fletus et ad matutinum laetitia
For — a moment [is] in His anger, Life [is] in His good-will, At even remaineth weeping, and at morn singing.
6 ego autem dixi in abundantia mea non movebor in aeternum
And I — I have said in mine ease, 'I am not moved — to the age.
7 Domine in voluntate tua praestitisti decori meo virtutem avertisti faciem tuam et factus sum conturbatus
O Jehovah, in Thy good pleasure, Thou hast caused strength to remain for my mountain,' Thou hast hidden Thy face — I have been troubled.
8 ad te Domine clamabo et ad Deum meum deprecabor
Unto Thee, O Jehovah, I call, And unto Jehovah I make supplication.
9 quae utilitas in sanguine meo dum descendo in corruptionem numquid confitebitur tibi pulvis aut adnuntiabit veritatem tuam
'What gain [is] in my blood? In my going down unto corruption? Doth dust thank Thee? doth it declare Thy truth?
10 audivit Dominus et misertus est mei Dominus factus est adiutor meus
Hear, O Jehovah, and favour me, O Jehovah, be a helper to me.'
11 convertisti planctum meum in gaudium mihi conscidisti saccum meum et circumdedisti me laetitia
Thou hast turned my mourning to dancing for me, Thou hast loosed my sackcloth, And girdest me [with] joy.
12 ut cantet tibi gloria mea et non conpungar Domine Deus meus in aeternum confitebor tibi
So that honour doth praise Thee, and is not silent, O Jehovah, my God, to the age I thank Thee!
