8To 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?
10Hear me, O LORD, and have mercy;
O LORD, be my helper.”
11You turned my mourning into dancing;
You peeled off my sackcloth and clothed me with joy,
12that my heart may sing Your praises and not be silent.
O LORD my God, I will give thanks forever.
— Psalm 30:8-12
