Psalm 30 :: Christian Standard Bible (CSB)

LORD my God,

I cried to you for help, and you healed me.

LORD, you brought me up from Sheol;

you spared me from among those

going down[fn] to the Pit.

Sing to the LORD, you his faithful ones,

and praise his holy name.

For his anger lasts only a moment,

but his favor, a lifetime.

Weeping may stay overnight,

but there is joy in the morning.

When I was secure, I said,

“I will never be shaken.”

LORD, when you showed your favor,

you made me stand like a strong mountain;

when you hid your face, I was terrified.

LORD, I called to you;

I sought favor from my Lord:

“What gain is there in my death,

if I go down to the Pit?

Will the dust praise you?

Will it proclaim your truth?

“LORD, listen and be gracious to me;

LORD, be my helper.”

You turned my lament into dancing;

you removed my sackcloth

and clothed me with gladness,

so that I can sing to you and not be silent.

LORD my God, I will praise you forever.
