A song of David for the dedication of the Temple. ^{[ a ]}

30 Lord , you lifted me out of my troubles.
You did not give my enemies a reason to laugh,
so I will praise you.
² Lord my God, I prayed to you,
and you healed me.
³ Lord , you lifted me out of the grave.
I was falling into the place of death, but you saved my life.

⁴ Praise the Lord , you who are loyal to him!
Praise his holy name ^{[ b ]} !
⁵ His anger lasts for a little while,
but then his kindness brings life.
The night may be filled with tears,
but in the morning we can sing for joy!

⁶ When I was safe and secure,
I thought nothing could hurt me.
⁷ Yes, Lord , while you were kind to me,
I felt that nothing could defeat me. ^{[ c ]}
But when you turned away from me,
I was filled with fear.
⁸ So, Lord , I turned and prayed to you.
I asked you, Lord, to show me mercy.
⁹ I said, “What good is it if I die
and go down to the grave?
The dead just lie in the dirt.
They cannot praise you.
They cannot tell anyone how faithful you are.
¹⁰ Lord , hear my prayer, and be kind to me.
Lord , help me!”

¹¹ You have changed my sorrow into dancing.
You have taken away my sackcloth
and clothed me with joy.
¹² You wanted me to praise you and not be silent.
Lord my God, I will praise you forever!

30:3 Sheol is the place of the dead.

30 Unto the end, a psalm for David, in an ecstasy.

² In thee, O Lord, have I hoped, let me never be confounded: deliver me in thy justice.

³ Bow down thy ear to me: make haste to deliver me. Be thou unto me a God, a protector, and a house of refuge, to save me.

⁴ For thou art my strength and my refuge; and for thy name's sake thou wilt lead me, and nourish me.

⁵ Thou wilt bring me out of this snare, which they have hidden for me: for thou art my protector.

⁶ Into thy hands I commend my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O Lord, the God of truth.

⁷ Thou hast hated them that regard vanities, to no purpose. But I have hoped in the Lord:

⁸ I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy. For thou hast regarded my humility, thou hast saved my soul out of distresses.

⁹ And thou hast not shut me up in the hands of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a spacious place.

¹⁰ Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am afflicted: my eye is troubled with wrath, my soul, and my belly:

¹¹ For my life is wasted with grief: and my years in sighs. My strength is weakened through poverty and my bones are disturbed.

¹² I am become a reproach among all my enemies, and very much to my neighbours; and a fear to my acquaintance. They that saw me without fled from me.

¹³ I am forgotten as one dead from the heart. I am become as a vessel that is destroyed.

¹⁴ For I have heard the blame of many that dwell round about. While they assembled together against me, they consulted to take away my life.

¹⁵ But I have put my trust in thee, O Lord: I said: Thou art my God.

¹⁶ My lots are in thy hands. Deliver me out of the hands of my enemies; and from them that persecute me.

¹⁷ Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; save me in thy mercy.

¹⁸ Let me not be confounded, O Lord, for I have called upon thee. Let the wicked be ashamed, and be brought down to hell.

¹⁹ Let deceitful lips be made dumb. Which speak iniquity against the just, with pride and abuse.

²⁰ O how great is the multitude of thy sweetness, O Lord, which thou hast hidden for them that fear thee! Which thou hast wrought for them that hope in thee, in the sight of the sons of men.

²¹ Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy face, from the disturbance of men. Thou shalt protect them in thy tabernacle from the contradiction of tongues.

²² Blessed be the Lord, for he hath shewn his wonderful mercy to me in a fortified city.

²³ But I said in the excess of my mind: I am cast away from before thy eyes. Therefore thou hast heard the voice of my prayer, when I cried to thee.

²⁴ O love the Lord, all ye his saints: for the Lord will require truth, and will repay them abundantly that act proudly.

²⁵ Do ye manfully, and let your heart be strengthened, all ye that hope in the Lord.
