Psaumes 30.10
English standard version

Louange après la délivrance

¹ A Psalm of David. A song at the dedication of the temple.
I will extol you, O Lord, for you have drawn me up
and have not let my foes rejoice over me
² O Lord my God, I cried to you for help,
and you have healed me
³ O Lord, you have brought up my soul from Sheol;
you restored me to life from among those who go down to the pit
⁴ Sing praises to the Lord, O you his saints,
and give thanks to his holy name
⁵ For his anger is but for a moment,
and his favor is for a lifetime.
Weeping may tarry for the night,
but joy comes with the morning
⁶ As for me, I said in my prosperity,
I shall never be moved
⁷ By your favor, O Lord,
you made my mountain stand strong;
you hid your face;
I was dismayed
⁸ To you, O Lord, I cry,
and to the Lord I plead for mercy:
⁹ What profit is there in my death,
if I go down to the pit?
Will the dust praise you?
Will it tell of your faithfulness?
¹⁰ Hear, O Lord, and be merciful to me!
O Lord, be my helper!
¹¹ You have turned for me my mourning into dancing;
you have loosed my sackcloth
and clothed me with gladness,
¹² that my glory may sing your praise and not be silent.
O Lord my God, I will give thanks to you forever!
