Psalms 41

1 To the choirmaster a psalm of David. How blessed! [is one who] considers [the] poor in a day of trouble he will deliver him Yahweh.

For the leader; for Jeduthun. A psalm of David. Happy are those who consider the weak; in the day of misfortune the Lord will deliver them.

2 Yahweh - he will keep him and he will preserve alive him (and he will be called blessed *Q(K)*) in the land and may not you give him in [the] desire of enemies his.

He will keep them safe, happy, and long in the land, and not give them up to the rage of their foes.

3 Yahweh he will sustain him on a couch of illness all bed his you have changed in sickness his.

The Lord will sustain them on bed of languishing; tending their sickness, as long as they lie.

4 I I said O Yahweh show favor to me heal! self my for I have sinned to you.

For this cause I say, ‘Lord, show me your favour; heal me, because I have sinned against you.’

5 Enemies my they speak evil of me when? will he die and will it perish? name his.

My enemies speak of me nothing but evil, ‘When will he die, and his name pass away?’

6 And if someone came to see - falsehood it speaks heart his it gathers wickedness for itself he goes out to the outside he speaks.

When one comes to see me, their words ring hollow; their heart keeps gathering mischief the while; and when they go out, they give it speech.

7 Together on me they whisper to one another all [those who] hate me on me - they plot trouble for me.

In secret they whisper together against me, all those who hate me plot evil against me.

8 A thing of worthlessness [has been] poured out on him and [the one] who he lay down not he will repeat to rise.

‘Some fatal disease has fastened upon him; and now that he lies, he will rise up no more.’

9 Also a person of peace my - whom I trusted in him [who] ate food my he has made great on me a heel.

My most trusted friend, on whom I relied, who ate of my bread, has turned against me.

10 And you O Yahweh show favor to me and raise up me so let me repay to them.

But do you, Lord, graciously raise me up, that I may pay them their due reward.

11 By this I know that you delight in me that not he shouts in triumph enemy my over me.

By this will I know you delight in me: if my foes may not shout over me in triumph.

12 And I in integrity my you have supported me and you have set me before you for ever.

For my innocence you uphold me, and set me forever before your face.

13 [be] blessed Yahweh - [the] God of Israel from antiquity and until perpetuity amen - and amen.

Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting, Amen and Amen.
