American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
A Psalm; a Song at the Dedication of the House. A Psalm of David.I will extol thee, O Jehovah; for thou hast {Or, drawn}raised me up,And hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.
O Jehovah my God,I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.
O Jehovah, thou hast brought up my soul from Sheol;Thou hast kept me alive, {Another reading is, from among them that go down to the pit.}that I should not go down to the pit.
Sing praise unto Jehovah, O ye saints of his,And give thanks to his holy memorial name.
For his anger is but for a moment; {Or, In his favor is life}His favor is for a life-time:Weeping {Hebrew: may come in to lodge at even.}may tarry for the night,But joy cometh in the morning.
As for me, I said in my prosperity,I shall never be moved.
Thou, Jehovah, of thy favor hadst made my mountain to stand strong:Thou didst hide thy face; I was troubled.
I cried to thee, O Jehovah;And unto Jehovah I made supplication:
What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit?Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?
Hear, O Jehovah, and have mercy upon me:Jehovah, be thou my helper.
Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing;Thou hast loosed my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;
To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent.O Jehovah my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.
For his anger is but for a moment; {Or, In his favor is life}His favor is for a life-time:Weeping {Hebrew: may come in to lodge at even.}may tarry for the night,But joy cometh in the morning.
As for me, I said in my prosperity,I shall never be moved.
