Texts -- Psalms 30:5-12 (NET)

Context
30:5 For his anger lasts only a brief moment , and his good favor restores one’s life . One may experience sorrow during the night , but joy arrives in the morning . 30:6 In my self-confidence I said , “I will never be upended .” 30:7 O Lord , in your good favor you made me secure . Then you rejected me and I was terrified . 30:8 To you, O Lord , I cried out ; I begged the Lord for mercy : 30:9 “What profit is there in taking my life , in my descending into the Pit ? Can the dust of the grave praise you? Can it declare your loyalty ? 30:10 Hear , O Lord , and have mercy on me! O Lord , deliver me!” 30:11 Then you turned my lament into dancing ; you removed my sackcloth and covered me with joy . 30:12 So now my heart will sing to you and not be silent ; O Lord my God , I will always give thanks to you.

  • The title of this psalm identifies the writer as David. All but four of the psalms in Book 1 of the Psalter (Pss. 1-41) identify David as their writer, all except Psalms 1, 2, 10, and 33. The occasion of his writing this one ...
  • The psalmist began by acknowledging the Lord's deliverance of him, and he called on the congregation of Israel to praise Him.30:1 The reason David wanted to praise God was the Lord had restored him. Had God not done this the ...
  • 30:6 David had evidently become self-confident and had forgotten his complete dependence on the Lord (cf. John 15:5). Prosperity often tempts us with a false sense of our security (cf. Prov. 1:32; Jer. 22:21), and David slipp...

  • Habakkuk's prayer is hymnic in form, like many of the psalms (cf. Ps. 16; 30; 45; 88; 102; 142), and it apparently stood apart from the rest of the book at one time, as this title verse suggests. "Shigionoth"may be the title ...
