< Mazmur 41 >

1 Untuk pemimpin kor. Mazmur Daud. Berbahagialah orang yang memperhatikan orang yang lemah; TUHAN akan menolong dia di waktu kesesakan.
Unto the end, a psalm for David himself. Blessed is he that understandeth concerning the needy and the poor: the Lord will deliver him in the evil day.
2 TUHAN akan melindungi dan memelihara dia, Ia akan membahagiakannya di bumi, dan tidak menyerahkan dia ke tangan musuhnya.
The Lord preserve him and give him life, and make him blessed upon the earth: and deliver him not up to the will of his enemies.
3 TUHAN akan menolong dia pada waktu sakit, dan memulihkan kesehatannya.
The Lord help him on his bed of sorrow: thou hast turned all his couch in his sickness.
4 Kataku, "Aku telah berdosa terhadap-Mu, ya TUHAN, kasihanilah aku dan sembuhkanlah aku."
I said: O Lord, be thou merciful to me: heal my soul, for I have sinned against thee.
5 Musuhku mengatakan yang jahat tentang aku, mereka ingin agar aku mati dan dilupakan.
My enemies have spoken evils against me: when shall he die and his name perish?
6 Orang-orang yang menjenguk aku tidak tulus ikhlas. Mereka mengumpulkan kabar buruk tentang aku, lalu menyiarkannya ke mana-mana.
And if he came in to see me, he spoke vain things: his heart gathered together iniquity to itself. He went out and spoke to the same purpose.
7 Semua yang membenci aku berbisik-bisik; mereka mengatakan yang paling jelek tentang aku.
All my enemies whispered together against me: they devised evils to me.
8 Kata mereka, "Penyakitnya parah sekali, ia tak mungkin bangun lagi."
They determined against me an unjust word: shall he that sleepeth rise again no more?
9 Bahkan kawan karib yang paling kupercayai, orang yang makan bersamaku, telah menghina aku.
For even the man of peace, in whom I trusted, who ate my bread, hath greatly supplanted me.
10 Kasihanilah aku ya TUHAN, sembuhkanlah aku, agar aku dapat membalas kejahatan lawan-lawanku.
But thou, O Lord, have mercy on me, and raise me up again: and I will requite them.
11 Kalau aku tidak dikalahkan musuhku, tahulah aku bahwa Engkau berkenan kepadaku.
By this I know, that thou hast had a good will for me: because my enemy shall not rejoice over me.
12 Engkau menolong aku karena ketulusanku, dan membuat aku hidup bersama-Mu untuk selamanya.
But thou hast upheld me by reason of my innocence: and hast established me in thy sight for ever.
13 Pujilah TUHAN, Allah Israel! Pujilah Dia sekarang dan selama-lamanya! Jadilah demikian. Amin!
Blessed by the Lord the God of Israel from eternity to eternity. So be it. So be it.
