Psalm 30:6-12

Christian Standard Bible

⁶ When I was secure, I said,
“I will never be shaken.”^(A)
7 Lord, when you showed your favor,
you made me stand like a strong mountain;^(B)
when you hid your face, I was terrified.^(C)
8 Lord, I called to you;
I sought favor from my Lord:^(D)
9 “What gain is there in my death,
if I go down to the Pit?
Will the dust praise you?
Will it proclaim your truth?^(E)
10 Lord, listen and be gracious to me;
Lord, be my helper.”^(F)

¹¹ You turned my lament into dancing;
you removed my sackcloth
and clothed me with gladness,^(G)
12 so that I can sing to you and not be silent.
Lord my God, I will praise you forever.^(H)
