A Psalm and Song at the dedication of the house of David.

I will extol Thee, O LORD; for Thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.

O LORD my God, I cried unto Thee, and Thou hast healed me.  O LORD, Thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: Thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

Sing unto the LORD, O ye saints of His, and give thanks at the remembrance of His holiness.  For His anger endureth but a moment; in His favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.  And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved.

LORD, by Thy favour Thou hast made my mountain to stand strong: Thou didst hide Thy face, and I was troubled.  I cried to Thee, O LORD; and unto the LORD I made supplication.What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise Thee? Shall it declare Thy truth?

Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me: LORD, be Thou my helperThou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: Thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;  To the end that my glory may sing praise to Thee, and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto Thee for ever.

Psalm 30:1-12
