"To you, O LORD, I cried out; I begged the Lord for mercy:"
— Psalms 30:8, NET Bible
“I cried to thee, O Lord; and unto the Lord I made supplication.”
“I cried to thee, O Jehovah; And unto Jehovah I made supplication: ”
“I cried to you, Yahweh. To Yahweh I made supplication:”
“I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy. For thou hast regarded my humility, thou hast saved my soul out of distresses.”
“My voice went up to you, O Lord; I made my prayer to the Lord.”
“I cried to thee, O Lord; and unto the Lord I made supplication.”
For his anger lasts only a brief moment, and his good favor restores one’s life. One may experience sorrow during the night, but joy arrives in the morning.
In my self-confidence I said,“I will never be shaken.”
O LORD, in your good favor you made me secure. Then you rejected me and I was terrified.
To you, O LORD, I cried out; I begged the Lord for mercy:
“What profit is there in taking my life, in my descending into the Pit? Can the dust of the grave praise you? Can it declare your loyalty?
Hear, O LORD, and have mercy on me! O LORD, deliver me!”
Then you turned my lament into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and covered me with joy.
