Psalms 30 - EasyEnglish Bible 2024（EASY）

Psalm 30David wrote this song. He asks God to bless the temple.A song to thank God for his help

1 Lord, I will praise you,

because you have saved me from death.

You have not let my enemies laugh at me.

2 Lord, my God, I called to you for help,

and you have made me well again.

3 Lord, you pulled me up

out of the deep hole of death.

You saved me

from among those who are going into the grave.

4Sing to the Lord,

you people who trust him.

Praise his holy name.

5His anger continues only for a moment,

but he is kind to us for our whole life.

We may be sad all through the night,

but in the morning, we will be happy again.

6When I was feeling safe and strong,

I thought, ‘Nothing can ever destroy me.’

7But Lord, it was you who made me safe and strong,

because you are so kind.

But then you turned away from me,

and I became very afraid.

8I called to you for help, Lord.

I asked you to be kind to me, my Lord.

9If I go down into the deep hole of death,

that will not help you!

My dead body cannot praise you there!

It cannot tell people to trust you!

10 Lord, please listen to me!

Please be kind to me!

Lord, please be my helper!

11Now you have helped me to stop crying,

so that I dance instead!

I do not need to wear sackcloth,

because I am no longer sad.

Instead, you have made me very happy.

12So I am truly happy and I will sing to praise you.

I cannot stay quiet!

Lord, my God,

I will continue to thank you for ever.
