Only Version ❧ CM/CMD · 8·6·8·6 (D)
A Psalm and Song at the dedication of the house of David.
1 Jehovah, I will thee extol, for thou hast lift up me; and over me thou hast not made my foes joyful to be. 2 O Lord my God, to thee I cry’d and thou hast made me whole. 3 Out of the grave, O Jehovah, thou hast brought up my soul:
thou mad’st me live, I went not down 4 to pit. Sing to the Lord, ye his saints, and give thanks when ye his holiness record. 5 For but a moment in his wrath; life in his love doth stay: weeping may lodge with us a night but joy at break of day.
6 I said in my prosperity, I shall be moved never. 7 Lord, by thy favour thou hast made my mountain stand fast ever: thou hid’st thy face, I troubl’d was. 8 I unto thee did cry, O Lord: also my humble suit unto the Lord made I.
9 What gain is in my blood; when I into the pit go down? shall dust give glory unto thee? shall it thy truth make known? 10 Do thou me, O Jehovah, hear, and on me mercy have: Jehovah, O be thou to me an helper me to save.
11 Thou into dancing for my sake converted hast my sadness: my sackcloth thou unloosed hast, and girded me with gladness: 12 That sing to thee my glory may, and may not silent be: O Lord my God, I will give thanks for evermore to thee.
