Thanksgiving for Deliverance from Death.

A Psalm; a Song at the Dedication of the House. A Psalm of David.


1I will extol You, O LORD, for You have lifted me up,
          And have not let my enemies rejoice over me.

 
2O LORD my God,
          I cried to You for help, and You healed me.


3O LORD, You have brought up my soul from Sheol;
          You have kept me alive, that I would not go down to the pit.


4Sing praise to the LORD, you His godly ones,
And give thanks to His holy  name.


5For His anger is but for a moment,
His favor is for a lifetime;
Weeping may last for the night,
But a shout of joy comes in the morning.


6Now as for me, I said in my prosperity,
"I will never be moved."


7O LORD, by Your favor You have made my mountain to stand strong;
You hid Your face, I was dismayed.


8To You, O LORD, I called,
And to the Lord I made supplication:


9"What profit is there in my blood, if I go down to the pit?
Will the dust praise You? Will it declare Your faithfulness?


10" Hear, O LORD, and be gracious to me;
O LORD, be my  helper."


11You have turned for me my mourning into dancing;
You have  loosed my sackcloth and girded me with gladness,


12That my  soul may sing praise to You and not be silent.
O LORD my God, I will  give thanks to You forever.
