Psalms.
Chapter 30.
A Psalm and Song at the dedication of the house of David. I will extol thee, O Lord; for thou hast lifted me up, And hast not made my foes to rejoice over me. 
O Lord my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me. 
O Lord, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: Thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. 
Sing unto the Lord, O ye saints of his, And give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness. 
For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. 
And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved. 
Lord, by thy favour thou hast made my mountain to stand strong: Thou didst hide thy face, and I was troubled. 
I cried to thee, O Lord; And unto the Lord I made supplication. 
What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth? 
Hear, O Lord, and have mercy upon me: Lord, be thou my helper. 
Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: Thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness; 
To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.
