41:1 Blessed is he who considers the poor: Yahweh will deliver him in the day of evil.

41:2 Yahweh will preserve him, and keep him alive, He shall be blessed on the earth, And he will not surrender him to the will of his enemies.

41:3 Yahweh will sustain him on his sickbed, And restore him from his bed of illness.

41:4 I said, " Yahweh, have mercy on me. Heal me, for I have sinned against you."

41:5 My enemies speak evil against me: "When will he die, and his name perish?"

41:6 If he come to see me, he speaks falsehood. His heart gathers iniquity to itself. When he goes abroad, he tells it.

41:7 All who hate me whisper together against me. They imagine the worst for me.

41:8 An evil disease," they say, "has afflicted him. Now that he lies he shall rise up no more."

41:9 Yes, my own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, Who ate bread with me, Has lifted up his heel against me.

41:10 But you, Yahweh, have mercy on me, and raise me up, That I may repay them.

41:11 By this I know that you delight in me, Because my enemy doesn`t triumph over me.

41:12 As for me, you uphold me in my integrity, And set me in your presence forever.
