A Psalm and Song at the dedication of the house of David.

¹I will extol thee, O LORD; for thou hast lifted me up,

And hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.

²O LORD my God,

I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.

³O LORD, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave:

Thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

⁴Sing unto the LORD, O ye saints of his,

And give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.

⁵For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life:

Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.
