New Testament

Psalms 30:5-12 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

5. His anger lasts only a moment.But his kindness lasts for a lifetime.Crying may last for a night.But joy comes in the morning.

6. When I felt safe, I said,“I will never fail.”

7. Lord, in your kindness you made my mountain safe.But when you turned away, I was frightened.

8. I called to you, Lord.I asked you to have mercy on me.

9. I said, “What good will it do if I dieor if I go down to the grave?Dust cannot praise you.It cannot speak about your truth.

10. Lord, hear me and be merciful to me.Lord, help me.”

11. You changed my sorrow into dancing.You took away my rough cloth, which shows sadness, and clothed me in happiness.

12. I will sing to you and not be silent.Lord, my God, I will praise you forever.
