Psalm 30, NEW KING JAMES VERSION
Prior Chapter  |  Next Chapter

1

I will extol You, O LORD, for You have lifted me up,
And have not let my foes rejoice over me.
 

2

O LORD my God, I cried out to You,
And You healed me.
 

3

O LORD, You brought my soul up from the grave;
You have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.
 

4

Sing praise to the LORD, you saints of His,
And give thanks at the remembrance of His holy name.
 

5

For His anger is but for a moment,
His favour is for life;
Weeping may endure for a night,
But joy comes in the morning.
 

6

Now in my prosperity I said,
“I shall never be moved.”
 

7

LORD, by Your favour You have made my mountain stand strong;
You hid Your face, and I was troubled.
 

8

I cried out to You, O LORD;
And to the LORD I made supplication:
 

9

“What profit is there in my blood,
When I go down to the pit?
Will the dust praise You?
Will it declare Your truth?
 

10

Hear, O LORD, and have mercy on me;
LORD, be my helper!”
 

11

You have turned for me my mourning into dancing;
You have put off my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness,
 

12

To the end that my glory may sing praise to You and not be silent.
O LORD my God, I will give thanks to You forever.
