¹ I will exalt you, O Yahweh,
because you have drawn me up,
and have not made my enemies rejoice over me.
² O Yahweh, my God,
I cried for help to you,
and you healed me.
³ O Yahweh, you have brought my life up from Sheol.
You preserved me alive
from among those going down ^[c] to the pit.
⁴ Sing praises to Yahweh, you his faithful ones,
and give thanks to his holy fame.^[d]
5 For there is a moment in his anger;
there is a lifetime in his favor.
Weeping lodges for the evening,
but in the morning comes rejoicing.
⁶ But as for me, I had said in my prosperity,
"I shall not be moved ever."
⁷ O Yahweh, by your favor
you caused my strong mountain to stand.
You hid your face. I was bewildered.
⁸ To you, O Yahweh, I called,
and to the Lord I pleaded for grace saying,
⁹ "What gain is there in my death,^[e]
in my going down into the pit?
Will the dust praise you?
Will it tell of your faithfulness?
¹⁰ "O Yahweh, hear and be gracious to me.
O Yahweh, be my helper."
¹¹ You have turned my wailing into my dancing.
You have removed my sackcloth
and clothed me with joy
¹² so that I^[f] may sing praises to you
and not be quiet.
O Yahweh, my God,
I will give thanks to you forever.
