1. A Psalm; a Song at the Dedication of the House; a Psalm of David. I will extol thee, O LORD; for thou hast raised me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.
2. O LORD my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.
3. O LORD, thou hast brought up my soul from Sheol: thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.
4. Sing praise unto the LORD, O ye saints of his, and give thanks to his holy name.
5. For his anger is but for a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may tarry for the night, but joy cometh in the morning.
6. As for me, I said in my prosperity, I shall never be moved.
7. Thou, LORD, of thy favour hadst made my mountain to stand strong: thou didst hide thy face; I was troubled.
