Thanksgiving for Deliverance from Death.
A Psalm; a Song at the Dedication of the House. A Psalm of David.
And have not let my CPs 25:2; 35:19, 24enemies rejoice over me.
2 O Loʀᴅ my God,
I APs 88:13cried to You for help, and You BPs 6:2; 103:3; Is 53:5healed me.
You have kept me alive, 2Some mss read from among those who go downthat I would not BPs 28:1go down to the pit.
5 For APs 103:9; Is 26:20; 54:7, 8His anger is but for a moment,
His BPs 118:1favor is for a lifetime;
Weeping may CPs 126:5; 2 Cor 4:17last for the night,
But a shout of joy comes in the morning.
6 Now as for me, I said in my prosperity,
“I will APs 10:6; 62:2, 6never be moved.”
7 O Loʀᴅ, by Your favor You have made my mountain to stand strong;
You ADeut 31:17; Ps 104:29; 143:7hid Your face, I was dismayed.
8 To You, O Loʀᴅ, I called,
And to the Lord I made supplication:
9 “What profit is there in my blood, if I APs 28:1go down to the pit?
Will the BPs 6:5dust praise You? Will it declare Your faithfulness?
10 “APs 4:1; 27:7Hear, O Loʀᴅ, and be gracious to me;
O Loʀᴅ, be my BPs 27:9; 54:4helper.”
11 You have turned for me AEccl 3:4; Jer 31:4, 13my mourning into dancing;
O Loʀᴅ my God, I will BPs 44:8give thanks to You forever.
