For the end, a Psalm and Song at the
dedication of the house of David. 30:1 I will exalt thee, O Lord; for thou
hast lifted me up, and not caused mine enemies to rejoice over me.
30:2 O Lord my God, I cried to thee, and thou didst heal me.
30:3 O Lord, thou hast brought up my soul from Hades, thou hast delivered me
from [among] them that go down to the pit.
30:4 Sing to the Lord, ye his saints, and give thanks for the remembrance of
his holiness.
30:5 For anger is in his wrath, but life in his favour: weeping shall tarry
for the evening, but joy shall be in the morning.
30:6 And I said in my prosperity, I shall never be moved.
30:7 O Lord, in thy good pleasure thou didst add strength to my beauty: but
thou didst turn away thy face, and I was troubled.
30:8 To thee, O Lord, will I cry; and to my God will I make supplication.
30:9 What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to destruction? Shall
the dust give praise to thee? or shall it declare thy truth?
30:10 The Lord heard, and had compassion upon me; the Lord is become my
helper.
30:11 Thou hast turned my mourning into joy for me: thou hast rent off my
sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;
30:12 that my glory may sing praise to thee, and I may not be pierced [with
sorrow]. O Lord my God, I will give thanks to thee for ever. |
