Psalms 30:4-11

⁴Sing praise to Jehovah, ye His saints, And give thanks at the remembrance of His holiness,

⁵For — a moment is in His anger, Life is in His good-will, At even remaineth weeping, and at morn singing.

⁶And I — I have said in mine ease, 'I am not moved — to the age.

⁷O Jehovah, in Thy good pleasure, Thou hast caused strength to remain for my mountain,' Thou hast hidden Thy face — I have been troubled.

⁸Unto Thee, O Jehovah, I call, And unto Jehovah I make supplication.

⁹'What gain is in my blood? In my going down unto corruption? Doth dust thank Thee? doth it declare Thy truth?

¹⁰Hear, O Jehovah, and favour me, O Jehovah, be a helper to me.'

¹¹Thou hast turned my mourning to dancing for me, Thou hast loosed my sackcloth, And girdest me with joy.
