1I will extol you, LORD, for you have raised me up, and have not made my foes to rejoice over me.
I will exalt You, O LORD, for You have lifted me up and have not allowed my foes to rejoice over me.
2LORD my God, I cried to you, and you have healed me.
O LORD my God, I cried to You for help, and You healed me.
3LORD, you have brought up my soul from Sheol. You have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.
O LORD, You pulled me up from Sheol; You spared me from descending into the Pit.
4Sing praise to the LORD, you saints of his. Give thanks to his holy name.
Sing to the LORD, O you His saints, and praise His holy name.
5For his anger is but for a moment. His favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may stay for the night, but joy comes in the morning.
For His anger is fleeting, but His favor lasts a lifetime. Weeping may stay the night, but joy comes in the morning.
6As for me, I said in my prosperity, “I shall never be moved.”
In prosperity I said, “I will never be shaken.”
7You, LORD, when you favored me, made my mountain stand strong; but when you hid your face, I was troubled.
O LORD, You favored me; You made my mountain stand strong. When You hid Your face, I was dismayed.
8I cried to you, LORD. I made supplication to the Lord:
To You, O LORD, I called, and I begged my Lord for mercy:
9“What profit is there in my destruction, if I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise you? Shall it declare your truth?
“What gain is there in my bloodshed, in my descent to the Pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it proclaim Your faithfulness?
10Hear, LORD, and have mercy on me. LORD, be my helper.”
Hear me, O LORD, and have mercy; O LORD, be my helper.”
11You have turned my mourning into dancing for me. You have removed my sackcloth, and clothed me with gladness,
You turned my mourning into dancing; You peeled off my sackcloth and clothed me with joy,
12to the end that my heart may sing praise to you, and not be silent. LORD my God, I will give thanks to you forever!
that my heart may sing Your praises and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks forever.
