5 His anger lasts only a moment.His favor lasts a lifetime.Weeping may last for the night,but there is a song of joy in the morning.
6 When all was well with me, I said,“I will never be shaken.”
7 O Lord, by your favor you have made my mountain stand firm.When you hid your face, I was terrified.
8 I will cry out to you, O Lord.I will plead to the Lord for mercy:
9 “How will you profit if my blood is shed,if I go into the pit?Will the dust ⌊of my body⌋ give thanks to you?Will it tell about your truth?”
10 Hear, O Lord, and have pity on me!O Lord, be my helper!
11 You have changed my sobbing into dancing.You have removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy
