Read in context

Psalms 30:5–9 · Berean Standard Bible

5 For His anger is fleeting, but His favor lasts a lifetime. Weeping may stay the night, but joy comes in the morning.

6 In prosperity I said, “I will never be shaken.”

7 O LORD, You favored me; You made my mountain stand strong. When You hid Your face, I was dismayed.

8 To You, O LORD, I called, and I begged my Lord for mercy:

9 “What gain is there in my bloodshed, in my descent to the Pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it proclaim Your faithfulness?
