Lord, you brought me from death;[a]
    you kept me alive so that I did not descend into the Pit.[b]

You, his godly ones,
    sing to the Lord,
        give thanks at the mention of his holiness.
For his wrath is only momentary;
    yet his favor is for a lifetime.
Weeping may lodge for the night,
    but shouts of joy will come in the morning.
