Psa 30:11 You did it: you changed wild lament into whirling dance; You ripped off my black mourning band and decked me with wildflowers.
Psa 30:12 I'm about to burst with song; I can't keep quiet about you. GOD, my God, I can't thank you enough. MSG
Psalms 30:11
Those have turned for me my mourning into dancing,.... This, with what follows, expresses the success he had in seeking the Lord by prayer and supplication; there was a sudden change of things, as it often is with the people of God; sometimes they are mourning by reason of sin, their own and others; or on account of afflictions; or because of spiritual decays; or through the temptations of Satan; or, as it was the case of the psalmist now, because of the hidings of God's face; but this mourning is exchanged for joy and gladness when the Lord discovers his pardoning love, revives his work in their souls, takes off his afflicting hand from them, rebukes the tempter, and delivers out of his temptations, and shows himself, his grace and favour;
You have put off my sackcloth; which was used in mourning for relations, and in times of calamity and distress, and as a token of humiliation and repentance, Gen_37:34;
and girded me with gladness; by these phrases the same thing is signified as before; see Isa_ 61:3.
Psalms 30:12
To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent,.... Meaning either his soul, the more noble and glorious part of him; or the members of his body, his tongue, which is the glory of it, and with which he glorified God; see Psa_16:9; compared with Act_2:26, this was the end that was to be answered by changing the scene of things; and which was answered;
O Lord my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever; to the end of life, as long as he had a being, and to all eternity, Psa_104:33. Jerom interprets the whole psalm of the resurrection of Christ.
