1 <<To the chief musician: A Psalm of David.>> Blessed is he that considereth the poor; the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.

1 Blessed is the one who has concern for helpless people. The LORD will rescue him in times of trouble.

2 The LORD will preserve him and keep him alive, and he shallbe blessed upon the earth; and Thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies.

2 The LORD will protect him and keep him alive. He will be blessed in the land. Do not place him at the mercy of his enemies.

3 The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing; Thou wilt turn him on his bed in his sickness.

3 The LORD will support him on his sickbed. You will restore this person to health when he is ill.

4 I said, "LORD, be merciful unto me; heal my soul, for I have sinned against Thee."

4 I said, "O LORD, have pity on me! Heal my soul because I have sinned against you."

5 Mine enemies speak evil of me and say, "When shall he die and his name perish?"

5 My enemies say terrible things about me: "When will he die, and when will his family name disappear?"

6 And if he come to see me, he speaketh vanity; his heart gathereth iniquity to itself, and when he goeth out, he telleth it.

6 When one of them comes to visit me, he speaks foolishly. His heart collects gossip. [Then] he leaves to tell others.

7 All that hate me whisper together against me; against me do they devise my hurt.

7 Everyone who hates me whispers about me. They think evil things about me and say,

8 "An evil disease," they say, "cleaveth fast unto him, and now that he lieth down, he shall rise up no more."

8 "A devilish disease has attached itself to him. He will never leave his sickbed."

9 Yea, mine own familiar friend in whom I trusted, that ate of my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me.

9 Even my closest friend whom I trusted, the one who ate my bread, has lifted his heel against me.

10 But Thou, O LORD, be merciful unto me, and raise me up that I may requite them.

10 Have pity on me, O LORD! Raise me up so that I can pay them back

11 By this I know that Thou favorest me: because mine enemy doth not triumph over me.

11 and my enemy cannot shout in triumph over me. When you do this, I know that you are pleased with me.

12 And as for me, Thou upholdest me in mine integrity, and settest me before Thy face for ever.

12 You defend my integrity, and you set me in your presence forever.

13 Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting! Amen and Amen.

13 Thank the LORD God of Israel through all eternity! Amen and amen!
