Psalms 29

¹A Psalm of Canticle, in the dedication of David's house.

²I will exalt thee, o Lord because thou hast received me: neither hast delighted mine enemies over me.

³O Lord my God I have cried to thee, and thou hast healed me.

⁴Lord thou hast brought forth my soul out of hell: thou hast saved me from them that go down into the lake.

⁵Sing to our Lord ye his Saints: and confess to the memory of his holiness.

⁶Because wrath is in his indignation: and life in his will. At evening shall weeping abide: and in the morning gladness.

⁷And I said in my aboundance: I will not be moved for ever.

⁸O Lord in thy will thou hast given strength to my beauty. Thou hast turned away thy face from me, and I became troubled.

⁹To thee o Lord I will cry: and I will pray to my God.

¹⁰What profit is in my blood, whilst I descend into corruption? Shall dust confess to thee, or declare thy truth?

¹¹Our Lord hath heard, and had mercy on me: our Lord is become my helper.

¹²Thou hast turned my mourning into joy unto me: thou hast cut my sackcloth, and hast compassed me with gladness.

¹³That my glory may sing to thee, and I be not compunct: Lord my God for ever will I confess to thee.
