I will extol thee, O Lord; for thou hast lifted me up,
and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.

O Lord my God, I cried unto thee,
and thou hast healed me.

O Lord, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave:
thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

Sing unto the Lord, O ye saints of his,
and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.

For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life:
weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.

(Psalms 30: 1-5)
