Praise His faithfulness // Psalm 30

“I will extol you, O Lord,
for you have drawn me up
and have not let my foes rejoice over me.
O Lord my God, I cried to you for help,
and you have healed me.
O Lord, you have brought up my soul from Sheol;
you restored me to life
from among those who go down to the pit.

Sing praises to the Lord, O you His saints,
and give thanks to His holy Name.
For His anger is but for a moment,
and His favor is for a lifetime.

Weeping may tarry for the night,
but joy comes with the morning.

As for me, I said in my prosperity,
“I shall never be moved.”
By your favor, O Lord,
You made my mountain stand strong;
You hid your face;
I was dismayed.

To you, O Lord, I cry,
and to the Lord I plead for mercy:
“What profit is there in my death,
if I go down to the pit?
Will the dust praise You?
Will it tell of Your faithfulness?
Hear, O Lord, and be merciful to me!
O Lord, be my helper!”

You have turned for me
my mourning into dancing;
You have loosed my sackcloth
and clothed me with gladness,
that my glory may sing Your praise and not be silent.

O Lord my God,
I will give thanks to You forever!”
Psalm‬ ‭30‬:‭1-12‬ ESV
