Psalms 30:10

10 Lord, listen and be gracious to me; Lord, be my helper."

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 Lord, I called to You; I sought favor from my Lord:
9 "What gain is there in my death, in my descending to the Pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it proclaim Your truth?
10 Lord, listen and be gracious to me; Lord, be my helper."
11 You turned my lament into dancing; You removed my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness,
12 so that I can sing to You and not be silent. Lord my God, I will praise You forever.
