תהילים 41

1 לַמְנַצֵּחַ מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִֽד׃ אַשְׁרֵי מַשְׂכִּיל אֶל־דָּל בְּיוֹם רָעָה יְֽמַלְּטֵהוּ יְהוָֽה׃

For the chief musician. A psalm of David. Blessed is he who is concerned for the weak; in the day of trouble, Yahweh will rescue him.

2 יְהוָה ׀ יִשְׁמְרֵהוּ וִֽיחַיֵּהוּ יאשר וְאֻשַּׁר בָּאָרֶץ וְאַֽל־תִּתְּנֵהוּ בְּנֶפֶשׁ אֹיְבָֽיו׃

Yahweh will preserve him and keep him alive, and he will be blessed on the earth; Yahweh will not turn him over to the will of his enemies.

3 יְֽהוָה יִסְעָדֶנּוּ עַל־עֶרֶשׂ דְּוָי כָּל־מִשְׁכָּבוֹ הָפַכְתָּ בְחָלְיֽוֹ׃

Yahweh will support him on the bed of suffering; you will make his bed of sickness into a bed of healing.

4 אֲ‍ֽנִי־אָמַרְתִּי יְהוָה חָנֵּנִי רְפָאָה נַפְשִׁי כִּי־חָטָאתִי לָֽךְ׃

I said, “Yahweh, have mercy on me! Heal me, for I have sinned against you.”

5 אוֹיְבַי יֹאמְרוּ רַע לִי מָתַי יָמוּת וְאָבַד שְׁמֽוֹ׃

My enemies speak evil against me, saying, 'When will he die and his name perish?'

6 וְאִם־בָּא לִרְאוֹת ׀ שָׁוְא יְדַבֵּר לִבּוֹ יִקְבָּץ־אָוֶן לוֹ יֵצֵא לַחוּץ יְדַבֵּֽר׃

If my enemy comes to see me, he says worthless things; his heart gathers up my disaster for itself; when he goes away from me, he tells others about it.

7 יַחַד עָלַי יִתְלַחֲשׁוּ כָּל־שֹׂנְאָי עָלַי ׀ יַחְשְׁבוּ רָעָה לִֽי׃

All who hate me whisper together against me; against me they hope for my hurt.

8 דְּֽבַר־בְּלִיַּעַל יָצוּק בּוֹ וַאֲשֶׁר שָׁכַב לֹא־יוֹסִיף לָקֽוּם׃

They say, “An evil disease holds on tightly to him; now that he is lying down, he will rise up no more.”

9 גַּם־אִישׁ שְׁלוֹמִי ׀ אֲשֶׁר־בָּטַחְתִּי בוֹ אוֹכֵל לַחְמִי הִגְדִּיל עָלַי עָקֵֽב׃

Indeed, even my own close friend, in whom I trusted, who ate my bread, has lifted up his heel against me.

10 וְאַתָּה יְהוָה חָנֵּנִי וַהֲקִימֵנִי וַֽאֲשַׁלְּמָה לָהֶֽם׃

But you, Yahweh, have mercy on me and raise me up so that I may pay them back.

11 בְּזֹאת יָדַעְתִּי כִּֽי־חָפַצְתָּ בִּי כִּי לֹֽא־יָרִיעַ אֹיְבִי עָלָֽי׃

By this I know that you delight in me, for my enemy does not triumph over me.

12 וַאֲנִי בְּתֻמִּי תָּמַכְתָּ בִּי וַתַּצִּיבֵנִי לְפָנֶיךָ לְעוֹלָֽם׃

As for me, you support me in my integrity and will keep me before your face forever.

13 בָּרוּךְ יְהוָה ׀ אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל מֵֽהָעוֹלָם וְעַד הָעוֹלָם אָמֵן ׀ וְאָמֵֽן׃

May Yahweh, the God of Israel be praised from everlasting to everlasting. Amen and Amen.
