[[To the chief Musician,ºº
A Psalmº

[is] he that considerethººº
the poor:º
Yahwehº
will deliverºº
him in timeº
of trouble.º |
|
41:2
May the Lord preserve him and keep him alive, and bless him on the earth, and not deliver him into the hands of his enemy. |
|
41:2
Yahwehº
will preserveºº
him, and keep him alive;ºº
[and] he shall be blessedºº
upon the earth:º
and thou wilt notº
deliverºº
him unto the willº
of his enemies.ºº |
|

Yahwehº
will strengthenºº
him uponº
the bedº
of languishing:º
thou wilt makeºº
allº
his bedº
in his sickness.º |
|
41:4
I said, O Lord, have mercy upon me; heal my soul; for I have sinned against thee. |
|
41:4
Iº
said,ºº
Yahweh,º
be mercifulºº
unto me: healºº
my soul;º
forº
I have sinnedºº
against thee. |
|

Mine enemies have spoken evil against me, [saying], When shall he die, and his name perish? |
|
41:5
Mine enemiesºº
speakºº
evilº
of me, Whenº
shall he die,ºº
and his nameº
perish?ºº |
|
41:6
And if he came to see [me], his heart spoke vainly; he gathered iniquity to himself; he went forth and spoke in like manner. |
|
41:6
And ifº
he comeºº
to seeºº
[me], he speakethºº
vanity:º
his heartº
gatherethºº
iniquityº
to itself; [when] he goethºº
abroad,º
he tellethºº
[it]. |
|
41:7
All my enemies whispered against me; against me they devised my hurt. |

Allº
that hateºº
me whisperºº
togetherº
againstº
me: againstº
me do they deviseºº
my hurt.º |
|
41:8
They denounced a wicked word against me, [saying], Now that he lies, shall he not rise up again? |
|
41:8
An evilº
disease,º
[say they], cleaveth fastºº
unto him: and [now] thatº
he liethºº
he shall rise upºº
noº
more.ºº |
|
41:9
For even the man of my peace, in whom I trusted, who ate my bread, lifted up [his] heel against me. |
|
41:9
Yea,º
mine own familiarº
friend,ºº
in whomº
I trusted,ºº
which did eatºº
of my bread,º
hath lifted upºº
[his] heelº
againstº
me. |
|
41:10
But thou, O Lord, have compassion upon me, and raise me up, and I shall requite them. |
|
41:10
But thou,º
O Yahweh,º
be mercifulºº
unto me, and raise me up,ºº
that I may requiteºº
them. |
|
41:11
By this I know that thou hast delighted in me, because mine enemy shall not rejoice over me. |
|
41:11
By thisº
I knowºº
thatº
thou favourestºº
me, becauseº
mine enemyºº
doth notº
triumphºº
overº
me. |
|
41:12
But thou didst help me because of [mine] innocence, and hast established me before thee for ever. |
|
41:12
And as for me,º
thou upholdestºº
me in mine integrity,º
and settestºº
me before thy faceº
for ever.º |
