<> I will extol you, Yahweh, for you have raised me up, and have not made my foes to rejoice over me. |
| 30:2 |
Yahweh my God, I cried to you, and you have healed me. |
| 30:3 |
Yahweh, you have brought up my soul from Sheol. You have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. |

Sing praise to Yahweh, you saints of his. Give thanks to his holy name. |

I cried to you, Yahweh. To Yahweh I made supplication: |
| 30:9 |
"What profit is there in my destruction, if I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise you? Shall it declare your truth? |
| 30:10 |
Hear, Yahweh, and have mercy on me. Yahweh, be my helper." |
| 30:11 |
You have turned my mourning into dancing for me. You have removed my sackcloth, and clothed me with gladness, |
| 30:12 |
To the end that my heart may sing praise to you, and not be silent. Yahweh my God, I will give thanks to you forever! |
