1 To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. Blessed is he who considers the poor! The LORD delivers him in the day of trouble;
1 Blessed are those who have regard for the weak; the LORD delivers them in times 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.
2 The LORD protects and preserves them— they are counted among the blessed in the land— he does not give them over to the desire of their foes.
3 The LORD sustains him on his sickbed; in his illness thou healest all his infirmities.
3 The LORD sustains them on their sickbed and restores them from their bed of illness.
4 As for me, I said, "O LORD, be gracious to me; heal me, for I have sinned against thee!"
4 I said, “Have mercy on me, LORD; heal me, for I have sinned against you.”
5 My enemies say of me in malice: "When will he die, and his name perish?"
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.
6 When one of them comes to see me, he speaks falsely, while his heart gathers slander; then he goes out and spreads it around.
