Yahweh is pleased with those people who help to provide for the poor; he will rescue those people when they have troubles.

Yahweh protects them and allows them to live [for a long time]. He enables them to be happy in the land [of Israel], and rescues them from their enemies.

When they are sick, Yahweh strengthens them, and he heals them.
4 Kai loh, “BOEIPA, nang taengah ka tholh oeh tih, kai n'rhen lamtah ka hinglu he hoeih sak lah,” ka ti.
[When I was sick], I said, “Yahweh, be merciful to me and heal me; [I know that I am sick because] I have sinned against you.”
5 Ka thunkha rhoek loh kai he, “Me vaengah nim a duek vetih a ming a paltham ve,” tila a thae a thui.
My enemies say cruel things about me; they say, “How soon will he die, and then everyone will forget about him [MTY]? (OR, he will not have [any descendants to continue] his name).”
6 Hmuh hamla aka pawk boeih tah a lungbuei khaw a poeyoek lam ni a cal. Amah ham boethae a coi tih, vongvoel la a pha neh a thui.
When my enemies come to me, they falsely say that they [are concerned about me]. They listen to bad news about (me/my health). Then they go away and tell everywhere what is happening to me.
7 Ka lunguet boeih loh kai he a thae la m'moeh uh dongah kai taengah tun sisuk uh.
All those who hate me whisper to others about me, and they hope/desire that very bad things will happen to me.
8 “Anih tah a olka aka muen loh a kap thil tih a yalh atah thoh hamla koei mahpawh.
They say, “He will soon die because of his being sick; he will never get up from his bed [before he dies].”
9 Ka ngaimongnah hlang te tah amah dongah ka pangtung dae, ka buh aka ca long ni kai taengah a khodil a taloeh.
Even my best friend, whom I trusted very much, who [often] ate with me, has (betrayed me/put me into my enemies’ hands) [IDM].
10 Tedae BOEIPA nang loh kai n'rhen lamtah amih khoboe te thuung ham kai n'thoh lah.
But Yahweh, be merciful to me, and enable me to become healthy [again]. When you do that, I will be able to (pay back my enemies/get revenge on my enemies/cause my enemies to suffer like they caused me to suffer).
11 Ka thunkha rhoek te kai soah a yuhui pawt dongah kai taengah na naem te ka ming.
[If you enable me to] do that, with the result that my enemies do not defeat me, I will know that you are pleased with me.
12 Kai khaw kamah kah thincaknah neh kai nan duel tih kumhal namah hmai ah kai nan khueh.
[I will know that] it is because I have done what is right that you have helped me, and [I will know that] you will let me be with you forever.
13 Israel kah Pathen BOEIPA tah kumhal lamkah kumhal due a yoethen pai. Amen neh Amen.
Praise Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship]; Praise him forever! Amen! I desire that it will be so!
