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 called to you, Lord; I begged for your help:

9 "What will you gain from my death? What profit from my going to the grave? Are dead people able to praise you? Can they proclaim your unfailing goodness?

10 Hear me, Lord, and be merciful! Help me, Lord!"

11 You have changed my sadness into a joyful dance; you have taken away my sorrow and surrounded me with joy.

12 So I will not be silent; I will sing praise to you. Lord, you are my God; I will give you thanks forever.
