| New Living Translation | New International Version |
| 1I will exalt you, LORD, for you rescued me. You refused to let my enemies triumph over me. | 1A psalm. A song. For the dedication of the temple. Of David. I will exalt you, LORD, for you lifted me out of the depths and did not let my enemies gloat over me. |
| 2O LORD my God, I cried to you for help, and you restored my health. | 2LORD my God, I called to you for help, and you healed me. |
| 3You brought me up from the grave, O LORD. You kept me from falling into the pit of death. | 3You, LORD, brought me up from the realm of the dead; you spared me from going down to the pit. |
| 4Sing to the LORD, all you godly ones! Praise his holy name. | 4Sing the praises of the LORD, you his faithful people; praise his holy name. |
| 5For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime! Weeping may last through the night, but joy comes with the morning. | 5For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning. |
| 6When I was prosperous, I said, “Nothing can stop me now!” | 6When I felt secure, I said, "I will never be shaken." |
| 7Your favor, O LORD, made me as secure as a mountain. Then you turned away from me, and I was shattered. | 7LORD, when you favored me, you made my royal mountain stand firm; but when you hid your face, I was dismayed. |
| 8I cried out to you, O LORD. I begged the Lord for mercy, saying, | 8To you, LORD, I called; to the Lord I cried for mercy: |
| 9“What will you gain if I die, if I sink into the grave? Can my dust praise you? Can it tell of your faithfulness? | 9"What is gained if I am silenced, if I go down to the pit? Will the dust praise you? Will it proclaim your faithfulness? |
| 10Hear me, LORD, and have mercy on me. Help me, O LORD.” | 10Hear, LORD, and be merciful to me; LORD, be my help." |
| 11You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing. You have taken away my clothes of mourning and clothed me with joy, | 11You turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, |
| 12that I might sing praises to you and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give you thanks forever! | 12that my heart may sing your praises and not be silent. LORD my God, I will praise you forever. |
