Chapter 30
1A Psalm. -- A song of the dedication of the house of David. I exalt Thee, O Jehovah, For Thou hast drawn me up, and hast not let mine enemies rejoice over me. 2Jehovah my God, I have cried to Thee, And Thou dost heal me. 3Jehovah, Thou hast brought up from Sheol my soul, Thou hast kept me alive, From going down [to] the pit. 4Sing praise to Jehovah, ye His saints, And give thanks at the remembrance of His holiness, 5For -- a moment [is] in His anger, Life [is] in His good-will, At even remaineth weeping, and at morn singing. 6And I -- I have said in mine ease, `I am not moved -- to the age. 7O Jehovah, in Thy good pleasure, Thou hast caused strength to remain for my mountain,` Thou hast hidden Thy face -- I have been troubled. 8Unto Thee, O Jehovah, I call, And unto Jehovah I make supplication. 9`What gain [is] in my blood? In my going down unto corruption? Doth dust thank Thee? doth it declare Thy truth? 10Hear, O Jehovah, and favour me, O Jehovah, be a helper to me.` 11Thou hast turned my mourning to dancing for me, Thou hast loosed my sackcloth, And girdest me [with] joy. 12So that honour doth praise Thee, and is not silent, O Jehovah, my God, to the age I thank Thee!
