| 2 LORD my God, I cried to You for help, and You healed me. | 2O LORD my God, I cried to you for help, and you restored my health. |
| 3 LORD, You brought me up from Sheol; You spared me from among those going down to the Pit. | 3You brought me up from the grave, O LORD. You kept me from falling into the pit of death. |
| 4Sing to Yahweh, you His faithful ones, and praise His holy name. | 4Sing to the LORD, all you godly ones! Praise his holy name. |
| 5For His anger lasts only a moment, but His favor, a lifetime. Weeping may spend the night, but there is joy in the morning. | 5For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime! Weeping may last through the night, but joy comes with the morning. |
| 6When I was secure, I said," I will never be shaken." | 6When I was prosperous, I said, “Nothing can stop me now!” |
| 7 LORD, when You showed Your favor, You made me stand like a strong mountain; when You hid Your face, I was terrified. | 7Your favor, O LORD, made me as secure as a mountain. Then you turned away from me, and I was shattered. |
| 8 LORD, I called to You; I sought favor from my Lord:" | 8I cried out to you, O LORD. I begged the Lord for mercy, saying, |
| 9What gain is there in my death, if I go down to the Pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it proclaim Your truth? | 9“What will you gain if I die, if I sink into the grave? Can my dust praise you? Can it tell of your faithfulness? |
| 10 LORD, listen and be gracious to me; LORD, be my helper." | 10Hear me, LORD, and have mercy on me. Help me, O LORD.” |
| 11You turned my lament into dancing; You removed my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness, | 11You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing. You have taken away my clothes of mourning and clothed me with joy, |
| 12so that I can sing to You and not be silent. LORD my God, I will praise You forever. | 12that I might sing praises to you and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give you thanks forever! |
