Psalm
41
1
How blessed is the one who treats the poor properly! When trouble comes, the LORD delivers him.
2
May the LORD protect him and save his life! May he be blessed in the land! Do not turn him over to his enemies!
3
The LORD supports him on his sickbed; you completely heal him from his illness.
4
As for me, I said: "O LORD, have mercy on me! Heal me, for I have sinned against you!
5
My enemies ask this cruel question about me, 'When will he finally die and be forgotten?'
6
When someone comes to visit, he pretends to be friendly; he thinks of ways to defame me, and when he leaves he slanders me.
7
All who hate me whisper insults about me to one another; they plan ways to harm me.
8
They say, 'An awful disease overwhelms him, and now that he is bed-ridden he will never recover.'
9
Even my close friend whom I trusted, he who shared meals with me, has turned against me.
10
As for you, O LORD, have mercy on me and raise me up, so I can pay them back!"
11
By this I know that you are pleased with me, for my enemy does not triumph over me.
12
As for me, you uphold me because of my integrity; you allow me permanent access to your presence.
13
The LORD God of Israel deserves praise in the future and forevermore! We agree! We agree!
