To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. Blessed is he who considers the poor! The LORD delivers him in the day of trouble; |
2
|
the LORD protects him and keeps him alive; he is called blessed in the land; thou dost not give him up to the will of his enemies. |
3
|
The LORD sustains him on his sickbed; in his illness thou healest all his infirmities. |
4
|
As for me, I said, "O LORD, be gracious to me; heal me, for I have sinned against thee!" |
5
|
My enemies say of me in malice: "When will he die, and his name perish?" |
6
|
And when one comes to see me, he utters empty words, while his heart gathers mischief; when he goes out, he tells it abroad. |
7
|
All who hate me whisper together about me; they imagine the worst for me. |
8
|
They say, "A deadly thing has fastened upon him; he will not rise again from where he lies." |
9
|
Even my bosom friend in whom I trusted, who ate of my bread, has lifted his heel against me. |
10
|
But do thou, O LORD, be gracious to me, and raise me up, that I may requite them! |
11
|
By this I know that thou art pleased with me, in that my enemy has not triumphed over me. |
12
|
But thou hast upheld me because of my integrity, and set me in thy presence for ever. |
13
|
Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting! Amen and Amen. |
