| 1 | {A Psalm of David: dedication-song of the house.} I will extol thee, Jehovah; for thou hast delivered me, and hast not made mine enemies to rejoice over me. |
| 2 | Jehovah my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me. |
| 3 | Jehovah, thou hast brought up my soul from Sheol, thou hast quickened me from among those that go down to the pit. |
| 4 | Sing psalms unto Jehovah, ye saints of his, and give thanks in remembrance of his holiness. |
| 5 | For a moment [is passed] in his anger, a life in his favour; at even weeping cometh for the night, and at morn there is rejoicing. |
| 6 | As for me, I said in my prosperity, I shall never be moved. |
| 7 | Jehovah, by thy favour thou hadst made my mountain to stand strong: thou didst hide thy face; I was troubled. |
| 8 | I called to thee, Jehovah, and unto the Lord did I make supplication: |
| 9 | What profit is there in my blood, in my going down to the pit? shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth? |
| 10 | Hear, O Jehovah, and be gracious unto me; Jehovah, be my helper. |
| 11 | Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing; thou hast loosed my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness; |
| 12 | That [my] glory may sing psalms of thee, and not be silent. Jehovah my God, I will praise thee for ever. |
