Psalm 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.

Psalm 30:10 In-Context

8 To You, O LORD, I called, and I begged my Lord for mercy:

9 “What gain is there in my bloodshed, in my descent to the Pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it proclaim Your faithfulness?

10 Hear me, O LORD, and have mercy; O LORD, be my helper.”

11 You turned my mourning into dancing; You peeled off my sackcloth and clothed me with joy,

12 that my heart may sing Your praises and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks forever.
