Psalm 30 (WEBP)
[1] I will extol you, Yahweh, for you have raised me up, and have not made my foes to rejoice over me.
[2] Yahweh my God, I cried to you, and you have healed me.
[3] Yahweh, you have brought up my soul from Sheol.° You have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.
[4] Sing praise to Yahweh, you saints of his. Give thanks to his holy name.
[5] For his anger is but for a moment. His favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may stay for the night, but joy comes in the morning.
[6] As for me, I said in my prosperity, “I shall never be moved.”
[7] You, Yahweh, when you favored me, made my mountain stand strong; but when you hid your face, I was troubled.
[8] I cried to you, Yahweh. I made supplication to the Lord:
[9] “What profit is there in my destruction, if I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise you? Shall it declare your truth?
[10] Hear, Yahweh, and have mercy on me. Yahweh, be my helper.”
[11] You have turned my mourning into dancing for me. You have removed my sackcloth, and clothed me with gladness,
[12] to the end that my heart may sing praise to you, and not be silent. Yahweh my God, I will give thanks to you forever!
Psalm 30:3 Sheol is the place of the dead.

Psalm 30 (BYZ)
[1] [29:1] εις το τελος ψαλμος ωδης του εγκαινισμου του οικου τω δαυιδ [29:2] υψωσω σε κυριε οτι υπελαβες με και ουκ ηυφρανας τους εχθρους μου επ εμε
[2] [29:3] κυριε ο θεος μου εκεκραξα προς σε και ιασω με
[3] [29:4] κυριε ανηγαγες εξ αδου την ψυχην μου εσωσας με απο των καταβαινοντων εις λακκον
[4] [29:5] ψαλατε τω κυριω οι οσιοι αυτου και εξομολογεισθε τη μνημη της αγιωσυνης αυτου
[5] [29:6] οτι οργη εν τω θυμω αυτου και ζωη εν τω θεληματι αυτου το εσπερας αυλισθησεται κλαυθμος και εις το πρωι αγαλλιασις
[6] [29:7] εγω δε ειπα εν τη ευθηνια μου ου μη σαλευθω εις τον αιωνα
[7] [29:8] κυριε εν τω θεληματι σου παρεσχου τω καλλει μου δυναμιν απεστρεψας δε το προσωπον σου και εγενηθην τεταραγμενος
[8] [29:9] προς σε κυριε κεκραξομαι και προς τον θεον μου δεηθησομαι
[9] [29:10] τις ωφελεια εν τω αιματι μου εν τω καταβηναι με εις διαφθοραν μη εξομολογησεται σοι χους η αναγγελει την αληθειαν σου
[10] [29:11] ηκουσεν κυριος και ηλεησεν με κυριος εγενηθη βοηθος μου
[11] [29:12] εστρεψας τον κοπετον μου εις χορον εμοι διερρηξας τον σακκον μου και περιεζωσας με ευφροσυνην
[12] [29:13] οπως αν ψαλη σοι η δοξα μου και ου μη κατανυγω κυριε ο θεος μου εις τον αιωνα εξομολογησομαι σοι
