Psalm 30:6-8

Easy-to-Read Version

⁶ When I was safe and secure,
    I thought nothing could hurt me.
⁷ Yes, Lord, while you were kind to me,
    I felt that nothing could defeat me.^[a]
But when you turned away from me,
    I was filled with fear.
⁸ So, Lord, I turned and prayed to you.
    I asked you, Lord, to show me mercy.
