3 Lord, you brought me up from the grave,brought me back to life from among those going down to the pit.
4 You who are faithful to the Lord, sing praises to him;give thanks to his holy name!
5 His anger lasts for only a second,but his favor lasts a lifetime.Weeping may stay all night,but by morning, joy!
6 When I was comfortable, I said,"I will never stumble."
7 Because it pleased you, Lord, you made me a strong mountain.But then you hid your presence.I was terrified.
8 I cried out to you, Lord.I begged my Lord for mercy:
9 "What is to be gained by my spilled blood,by my going down into the pit?Does dust thank you?Does it proclaim your faithfulness?
