Psalm 41

Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible RHE

1 (40-1) <Unto the end, a psalm for David himself.> (40-2) Blessed is he that understandeth concerning the needy and the poor: the Lord will deliver him in the evil day.

2 (40-3) 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 (40-4) The Lord help him on his bed of sorrow: thou hast turned all his couch in his sickness.

4 (40-5) I said: O Lord, be thou merciful to me: heal my soul, for I have sinned against thee.

5 (40-6) My enemies have spoken evils against me: when shall he die and his name perish?

6 (40-7) 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 (40-8) All my enemies whispered together against me: they devised evils to me.

8 (40-9) They determined against me an unjust word: shall he that sleepeth rise again no more?

9 (40-10) For even the man of my peace, in whom I trusted, who ate my bread, hath greatly supplanted me.

10 (40-11) But thou, O Lord, have mercy on me, and raise my up again: and I will requite them.

11 (40-12) By this I know, that thou hast had a good will for me: because my enemy shall not rejoice over me.

12 (40-13) But thou hast upheld me by reason of my innocence: and hast established me in thy sight for ever.

13 (40-14) Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel from eternity to eternity. So be it. So be it.

New Living Translation NLT

1 Oh, the joys of those who are kind to the poor! The LORD rescues them when they are in trouble.

2 The LORD protects them and keeps them alive. He gives them prosperity in the land and rescues them from their enemies.

3 The LORD nurses them when they are sick and restores them to health.

4 “O LORD,” I prayed, “have mercy on me. Heal me, for I have sinned against you.”

5 But my enemies say nothing but evil about me. “How soon will he die and be forgotten?” they ask.

6 They visit me as if they were my friends, but all the while they gather gossip, and when they leave, they spread it everywhere.

7 All who hate me whisper about me, imagining the worst.

8 “He has some fatal disease,” they say. “He will never get out of that bed!”

9 Even my best friend, the one I trusted completely, the one who shared my food, has turned against me.

10 LORD, have mercy on me. Make me well again, so I can pay them back!

11 I know you are pleased with me, for you have not let my enemies triumph over me.

12 You have preserved my life because I am innocent; you have brought me into your presence forever.

13 Praise the LORD, the God of Israel, who lives from everlasting to everlasting. Amen and amen!
