A Psalm. A Song at the dedication of the house of David.
1	I will extol You, O LORD, for You have lifted me up, And have not let my foes rejoice over me.
2	O LORD my God, I cried out to You, And You healed me.
3	O LORD, You brought my soul up from the grave; You have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.
4	Sing praise to the LORD, you saints of His, And give thanks at the remembrance of His holy name.
5	For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life; Weeping may endure for a night, But joy comes in the morning.
6	Now in my prosperity I said, “I shall never be moved.”
7	LORD, by Your favor You have made my mountain stand strong; You hid Your face, and I was troubled.
8	I 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? Will the dust praise You? Will it declare Your truth?
10	Hear, O LORD, and have mercy on me; LORD, be my helper!”
11	You have turned for me my mourning into dancing; You have put off my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness,
12	To the end that my glory may sing praise to You and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks to You forever.
