Psalms30NASB2020
Thanksgiving for Rescue from Death.
A Psalm; a Song at the Dedication of the House. A Psalm of David.
1I will exalt You, LORD, for You have lifted me up, And have not let my enemies rejoice over me.2LORD my God, I cried to You for help, and You healed me.3LORD, You have brought up my soul from Sheol; You have kept me alive, that I would not go down to the pit.4Sing praise to the LORD, you His godly ones, And praise the mention of His holiness.5For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for a lifetime; Weeping may last for the night, But a shout of joy comes in the morning. 6Now as for me, I said in my prosperity,“I will never be moved.”7LORD, by Your favor You have made my mountain to stand strong; You hid Your face, I was dismayed.8To You, LORD, I called, And to the Lord I pleaded for compassion:9“What gain is there in my blood, if I go down to the pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it declare Your faithfulness? 10“Hear, LORD, and be gracious to me;
LORD, be my helper.”11You have turned my mourning into dancing for me; You have untied my sackcloth and encircled me with joy,12That my soul may sing praise to You and not be silent. LORD my God, I will give thanks to You forever.
