1I will extol You, O Lord, for You have blifted me up,

And have not let my foes crejoice over me.

2O Lord my God, I cried out to You,

And You dhealed me.

3O Lord, eYou brought my soul up from the grave;

You have kept me alive, 1that I should not go down to the pit.

4fSing praise to the Lord, you saints of His,

And give thanks at the remembrance of 2His holy name.

5For gHis anger is but for a moment,

hHis favor is for life;

Weeping may endure for a night,

But 3joy comes in the morning.

6Now in my prosperity I said,

“I shall never be 4moved.”

7Lord, by Your favor You have made my mountain stand strong;

iYou hid Your face, and I was troubled.

8I 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?

jWill the dust praise You?

Will it declare Your truth?

10Hear, O Lord, and have mercy on me;

Lord, be my helper!”

11kYou have turned for me my mourning into dancing;

You have put off 5my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness,

12To the end that my 6glory may sing praise to You and not be silent.

O Lord my God, I will give thanks to You forever.
