Psalms 30

¹ I am exalting You, O Yahweh, for You have drawn me out, And You have not let my enemies rejoice over me. ² O Yahweh my Elohim, I implored to You, And You healed me. ³ O Yahweh, You have brought my soul up from the unseen; You have preserved me alive from descending to the crypt. ⁴ Make melody to Yahweh, His benign ones, And give acclamation to His holy Name. ⁵ For there is only a moment under His anger But a lifetime under His benevolence. In the evening, lamentation may lodge, But in the morning there is jubilant song. ⁶ Yet I, I have said in my ease, I shall not slip at all for the eon. ⁷ O Yahweh, in Your benevolence, You have made my mountain to stand in strength. If You conceal Your face, I become flustered; ⁸ To You, O Yahweh, am I calling, And to my Lord am I supplicating. ⁹ What gain is there in my blood poured out, In my descending to the grave? Does soil acclaim You? Does it tell Your faithfulness? ¹⁰ Hear, O Yahweh, and be gracious to me; O Yahweh, be my Help! ¹¹ You have turned my wailing into fluting for me. You have unloosed my sackcloth And are belting me with rejoicing, ¹² So that one may make melody to You, O my Glory, And may not be still. O Yahweh my Elohim, for the eon shall I acclaim You.
