041) Psalm 30

Psalm 30 A Psalm and Song,atthe dedication of the house of David.

8.6.8.6

1 JEHOVAH, I will thee extol, for thou hast lift up me; and over me thou hast not made my foes joyful to be.

2 O Lord my God, to thee I cry’d and thou hast made me whole.

3 Out of the grave, o Jehovah, thou hast brought up my soul:

Thou mad’st me to live, I went not down 4 to pit. Sing to the Lord, (ye his Saints) and give thanks when ye his holiness record.

5 For but a moment in his wrath; life in his love doth stray: weeping may lodge with us a night but joy at break of day.

6 I said in my prosperity, I shall be moved never.

7 Lord by thy favour thou hast made my mountain stand fast ever:

Thou hid’st thy face, I troubled was.

8 I unto thee did cry, o Lord: also my humble suit unto the Lord made I.

9 What gain is in my blood; when I into the pit go down? shall dust give glory unto thee? shall it thy truth make known?

10 Do thou me o Jehovah, hear, and on me mercy have:

Jehovah, o be thou to me an helper me to save.

11 Thou into dancing for my sake converted hast my sadness: my sackcloth thou unloosed hast, and girded me with gladness:

12 That sing to thee my glory may, and may not silent be: o Lord my God, I will give thanks for evermore to thee.
