Psalms 30

1 A Psalm. A Song for the Dedication of the Temple. By David. I will extol you, LORD, for you have raised me up, and have not made my foes to rejoice over me.

Psalmus Cantici In dedicatione domus David. Exaltabo te Domine quoniam suscepisti me: nec delectasti inimicos meos super me.

2 LORD my God, I cried to you, and you have healed me.

Domine Deus meus clamavi ad te, et sanasti me.

3 LORD, you have brought up my soul from Sheol (Sheol h7585). You have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

Domine eduxisti ab inferno animam meam: salvasti me a descendentibus in lacum. (Sheol h7585)

4 Sing praise to the LORD, you saints of his. Give thanks to his holy name.

Psallite Domino sancti eius: et confitemini memoriæ sanctitatis eius.

5 For 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.

Quoniam ira in indignatione eius: et vita in voluntate eius. Ad vesperum demorabitur fletus: et ad matutinum lætitia.

6 As for me, I said in my prosperity, “I shall never be moved.”

Ego autem dixi in abundantia mea: Non movebor in æternum.

7 You, LORD, when you favored me, made my mountain stand strong; but when you hid your face, I was troubled.

Domine in voluntate tua, præstitisti decori meo virtutem. Avertisti faciem tuam a me, et factus sum conturbatus.

8 I cried to you, LORD. I made supplication to the Lord:

Ad te Domine clamabo: et ad Deum meum deprecabor.

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?

Quæ utilitas in sanguine meo, dum descendo in corruptionem? Numquid confitebitur tibi pulvis, aut annunciabit veritatem tuam?

10 Hear, LORD, and have mercy on me. LORD, be my helper.”

Audivit Dominus, et misertus est mei: Dominus factus est adiutor meus.

11 You have turned my mourning into dancing for me. You have removed my sackcloth, and clothed me with gladness,

Convertisti planctum meum in gaudium mihi: conscidisti saccum meum, et circumdedisti me lætitia:

12 to the end that my heart may sing praise to you, and not be silent. LORD my God, I will give thanks to you forever!

Ut cantet tibi gloria mea: et non compungar: Domine Deus meus in æternum confitebor tibi.
