Psalms 30 - Tree of Life Version(TLV)

Joy Comes in the Morning

1A psalm, a song for the dedication of the Temple, of David.

2I will exalt You, Adonai

, for You have lifted me up, and did not let my enemies gloat over me.

3Adonai

my God, I cried to You for help, and You healed me.

4Adonai

, You brought my soul up from Sheol. You kept me alive, so I would not go down to the Pit.

5Sing praise to Adonai

, His faithful ones, and praise His holy name.

6For His anger lasts for only a moment, His favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may stay for the night, but joy comes in the morning.

7When I felt secure, I said: “I will never be shaken.”

8Adonai

, in Your favor You made my mountain stand strong. When You hid Your face, I was terrified.

9To You, Adonai

, I called, and to my Lord I made my plea:

10“What gain is there in my blood, in my going down to the Pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it declare Your truth?

11Hear, Adonai

, and be gracious to me. Adonai

, be my help.”

12You turned my mourning into dancing. You removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy.

13So my glory will sing to You and not be silent. Adonai

my God, I will praise You forever.
