A Psalm[H4210] and Song[H7892] at the dedication[H2598] of the house[H1004] of David[H1732]. I will extol[H7311] thee, O LORD[H3068]; for thou hast lifted me up[H1802], and hast not made my foes[H341] to rejoice[H8055] over me.
2
O LORD[H3068] my God[H430], I cried[H7768] unto thee, and thou hast healed[H7495] me.
3
O LORD[H3068], thou hast brought up[H5927] my soul[H5315] from the grave[H7585]: thou hast kept me alive[H2421], that I should not go down[H3381] to the pit[H953].
4Sing[H2167] unto the LORD[H3068], O ye saints[H2623] of his, and give thanks[H3034] at the remembrance[H2143] of his holiness[H6944].
5
For his anger[H639] endureth but a moment[H7281]; in his favour[H7522] is life[H2416]: weeping[H1065] may endure[H3885] for a night[H6153], but joy[H7440] cometh in the morning[H1242].
6
And in my prosperity[H7959] I said[H559], I shall never[H5769] be moved[H4131].
7LORD[H3068], by thy favour[H7522] thou hast made my mountain[H2042] to stand[H5975]strong[H5797]: thou didst hide[H5641] thy face[H6440], and I was troubled[H926].
8
I cried[H7121] to thee, O LORD[H3068]; and unto the LORD[H3068] I made supplication[H2603].
9
What profit[H1215] is there in my blood[H1818], when I go down[H3381] to the pit?[H7845] Shall the dust[H6083]praise[H3034] thee? shall it declare[H5046] thy truth?[H571]
10Hear[H8085], O LORD[H3068], and have mercy[H2603] upon me: LORD[H3068], be thou my helper[H5826].
11
Thou hast turned[H2015] for me my mourning[H4553] into dancing[H4234]: thou hast put off[H6605] my sackcloth[H8242], and girded[H247] me with gladness[H8057];
12
To the end that my glory[H3519] may sing[H2167] praise to thee, and not be silent[H1826]. O LORD[H3068] my God[H430], I will give thanks[H3034] unto thee for ever[H5769].
