Psalms 30:10 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 30:10

Hear, O Lord, and have mercy upon me
By lifting up the light of his countenance again upon him; by manifesting and applying his pardoning grace to him, and by delivering him out of all his afflictions;

Lord, be thou my helper;
in this time of trouble; for he knew that vain was the help of man; and he was entirely in the right to betake himself to the Lord, who was able to help him, when none else could.

Psalms 30:10 In-Context

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?

10 LORD, listen and have mercy on me! LORD, be my helper!"

11 You changed my mourning into dancing. You took off my funeral clothes and dressed me up in joy

12 so that my whole being might sing praises to you and never stop. LORD, my God, I will give thanks to you forever.
