Psalms 30

A psalm of an ode of the dedication of the house of David.

30:1I will exalt you, O lord, for you uplifted me, and my enemies did not make glad over me.

30:2O lord my God, I cried out to you, and I shall heal of my condition.

30:3O lord, you led my soul from out of Hades; you delivered me from the ones going down into the pit.

30:4Let his sacred ones strum to the lord, and make acknowledgment to the remembrance of his holiness!

30:5For wrath is in his rage, but life is in his will. Weeping shall lodge the evening, but in the morning, exultation.

30:6And I said in my prosperity, In no way shall I be shaken into the eon.

30:7O lord, in your will you furnished power to my beauty; but you turned your face, and I became disturbed.

30:8To you, O lord, I cry out. And to my God I shall beseech.

30:9What benefit is there in my blood, in my going down into corruption? Shall the dust acknowledge you, or shall it announce your truth?

30:10The lord heard, and showed mercy on me. The lord became my helper.

30:11The beating of my breast turned into joy for me. You tore up my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness.

30:12O how that should my glory strum to you, and in no way should I be vexed, O lord my God. Into the eon I shall acknowledge you.
