Salmos 30
1 Exaltar-te-hei, ó Senhor, porque tu me exaltaste; e não fizeste com que meus inimigos se alegrassem sobre mim.
Yahweh, I praise you because you rescued me. You did not allow [me to die], [with the result that] my enemies could gloat/rejoice.
2 Senhor, meu Deus, clamei a ti, e tu me saraste.
Yahweh, my God, I called out for you to help [me when I was ill], and you healed me.
3 Senhor, fizeste subir a minha alma da sepultura: conservaste-me a vida para que não descesse ao abysmo. (Sheol h7585)
You saved/restored me when I was dying [MTY]. I was nearly dead, but you caused me to get well again. (Sheol h7585)
4 Cantae ao Senhor, vós que sois seus sanctos, e celebrae a memoria da sua sanctidade.
All you who belong to Yahweh, sing praise to him! Think about what [God], the holy one, has done, and thank him!
5 Porque a sua ira dura só um momento; no seu favor está a vida: o choro pode durar uma noite, mas a alegria vem pela manhã.
When he becomes angry, he is angry for only a very short time [HYP], but he is good [to us] all of our life. We may cry during the night, but the next morning we will be joyful.
6 Eu dizia na minha prosperidade: Não vacillarei jámais.
As for me, when I had no troubles, I said [to myself], “No one will defeat me!”
7 Tu, Senhor, pelo teu favor fizeste forte a minha montanha: tu encobriste o teu rosto, e fiquei perturbado.
Yahweh, because you were good to me, at first you caused me to be safe [as though I was inside] [MET] a mountain. But then [I became ill, and I thought that] you had turned away from me, and I became afraid.
8 A ti, Senhor, clamei, e ao Senhor suppliquei.
[Then] I called out to you, and I pleaded for you [to help me].
9 Que proveito ha no meu sangue, quando desço á cova? Porventura te louvará o pó? annunciará elle a tua verdade?
[I said], “Yahweh, (what will you gain if I die?/ you won’t gain anything if I die) [MTY]. (In what way will it benefit you?/it won’t benefit you at all) if I go to the place where the dead people are [RHQ]. Dead people are certainly not able to praise you [RHQ], and they are not able to tell others that you are trustworthy [RHQ]!
10 Ouve, Senhor, e tem piedade de mim, Senhor; sê o meu auxilio.
Yahweh, listen to me, and be merciful to me! Yahweh, help me!”
11 Tornaste o meu pranto em folguedo: desataste o meu sacco, e me cingiste de alegria:
But [now you have healed me], and you have caused me to change from being sad to dancing [joyfully]. You have taken away the clothes that showed that I was very sad and you have given me clothes that showed that I was [very] joyful.
12 Para que a minha gloria a ti cante louvores, e não se cale: Senhor, Deus meu, eu te louvarei para sempre.
So I will not be silent; I will sing out [loudly] to praise you. Yahweh, you are my God, and I will thank you forever.
