Psalm 41

1 To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. O the happiness of him Who is acting wisely unto the poor, In a day of evil doth Jehovah deliver him.

1 Happy is one who cares for the poor; the Lord will save him in a day of adversity.

2 Jehovah doth preserve him and revive him, He is happy in the land, And Thou givest him not into the will of his enemies.

2 The Lord will keep him and preserve him; he will be blessed in the land. You will not give him over to the desire of his enemies.

3 Jehovah supporteth on a couch of sickness, All his bed Thou hast turned in his weakness.

3 The Lord will sustain him on his sickbed; You will heal him on the bed where he lies.

4 I said, "Lord, be gracious to me; heal me, for I have sinned against You."

5 Mine enemies say evil of me: When he dieth -- his name hath perished!

5 My enemies speak maliciously about me: "When will he die and be forgotten?"

6 And if he came to see -- vanity he speaketh, His heart gathereth iniquity to itself, He goeth out -- at the street he speaketh.

6 When one [of them] comes to visit, he speaks deceitfully; he stores up evil in his heart; he goes out and talks.

7 All hating me whisper together against me, Against me they devise evil to me:

7 All who hate me whisper together about me; they plan to harm me.

8 A thing of Belial is poured out on him, And because he lay down he riseth not again.

9 Even mine ally, in whom I trusted, One eating my bread, made great the heel against me,

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

10 And Thou, Jehovah, favour me, And cause me to rise, And I give recompence to them.

10 But You, Lord, be gracious to me and raise me up; then I will repay them.

11 By this I have known, That Thou hast delighted in me, Because my enemy shouteth not over me.

11 By this I know that You delight in me: my enemy does not shout in triumph over me.

12 As to me, in mine integrity, Thou hast taken hold upon me, And causest me to stand before Thee to the age.

12 You supported me because of my integrity and set me in Your presence forever.

13 Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age -- and unto the age. Amen and Amen.

13 May the Lord, the God of Israel, be praised from everlasting to everlasting. Amen and amen. BOOK II (Psalms 42-72)
