| 1 | A Psalm and Song, at the dedication of the house of David. I will extol thee, O LORD; for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me. |
| 2 | O LORD my God, I cried to thee, and thou hast healed me. |
| 3 | O LORD, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. |
| 4 | Sing to the LORD, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness. |
| 5 | For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favor is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. |
| 6 | And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved. |
| 7 | LORD, by thy favor thou hast made my mountain to stand strong: thou didst hide thy face, and I was troubled. |
| 8 | I cried to thee, O LORD; and to the LORD I made supplication. |
| 9 | What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth? |
| 10 | Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me: LORD, be thou my helper. |
| 11 | Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness; |
| 12 | To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks to thee for ever. |
