¹ I will extol You, O LORD, for You have lifted me up, And have not let my foes rejoice over me. ² O LORD my God, I cried out to You, And You healed me. ³ O Lord, You brought my soul up from the grave;You have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. [fn] ⁴ Sing praise to the Lord, You saints of His,And give thanks at the remembrance of His holy name. [fn] ⁵ For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life; Weeping may endure for a night, But joy comes in the morning.

⁶ Now in my prosperity I said, "I shall never be moved." ⁷ LORD, by Your favor You have made my mountain stand strong; You hid Your face, and I was troubled. ⁸ I cried out to You, O LORD; And to the LORD I made supplication: ⁹ "What profit is there in my blood, When I go down to the pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it declare Your truth? ¹⁰ Hear, O LORD, and have mercy on me; LORD, be my helper!" ¹¹ You have turned for me my mourning into dancing; You have put off my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness, ¹² To the end that my glory may sing praise to You and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks to You forever.
