30 I will extol thee, O LORD;
for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over
me. 2 O LORD my God, I cried unto thee, and
thou hast healed me. 3 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. 4 Sing unto the LORD, O ye saints of
his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness. 5 For his anger endureth but a moment;
in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh
in the morning. 6 And in my prosperity I said, I shall
never be moved. 7 LORD, by thy favour thou hast made
my mountain to stand strong: thou didst hide thy face, and I was troubled.
8 I cried to
thee, O LORD; and unto the LORD I made supplication. 9 What profit is there in my blood, when
I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth? 10 Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me:
LORD, be thou my helper. 11 Thou hast turned for me my mourning
into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness; 12 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.
