Psalms A melody. A song of inauguration of the house. Of David. 30"I will exalt you, O Jehovah, for you have lifted me up; You did not let my enemies rejoice over me. 2 O Jehovah my God, I cried to you for help, and you healed me. 3 O Jehovah, you have lifted me up from the Grave. You kept me alive; you spared me from sinking into the pit. 4 Sing praises to Jehovah, you his loyal ones, Give thanks to his holy name; 5 Because being under his anger is only for a moment, But being in his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may come in the evening, but in the morning, there is a joyful cry. 6 When I was untroubled, I said: “I will never be shaken.” 7 O Jehovah, while I was in your favor, you made me as strong as a mountain. But when you hid your face, I became terrified. 8 To you, O Jehovah, I kept calling; And to Jehovah, I kept pleading for favor. 9 What profit is there in my death, in my going down to the pit? Will the dust praise you? Will it tell of your faithfulness? 10 Hear, O Jehovah, and show me favor. O Jehovah, become my helper. 11 You have changed my mourning into dancing; You have removed my sackcloth, and you clothe me with rejoicing, 12 So that I may sing your praise and not keep silent. O Jehovah my God, I will praise you forever." (Psalm 30:1-12) NWT jw.org
