Salmos 41,1-13
Psalm XLI.
1 Gods care of the poore. 4 Dauid complaineth of his enemies trecherie. 10 He flyeth to God for succour.
To the chiefe Musician. A Psalme of Dauid.
1 Blessed is he that considereth [ Or, the weake, or sicke.] the poore; the Lord will deliuer him [ Hebrew: in the day of euill.] in time of trouble.
2 The Lord will preserue him, and keepe him aliue, and he shall be blessed vpon the earth; and [ Or, doe not thou deliuer.] thou wilt not deliuer him vnto the will of his enemies.
3 The Lord will strengthen him vpon the bed of languishing: thou wilt [ Hebrew: turne.] make all his bed in his sicknesse.
4 I sayd, Lord be mercifull vnto me, heale my soule, for I haue sinned against thee.
5 Mine enemies speake euill of me: when shall hee die, and his name perish?
6 And if hee come to see me, he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth iniquitie to it selfe, when he goeth abroad, he telleth it.
7 All that hate me, whisper together against me; against me doe they deuise [ Hebrew: euill to me.] my hurt.
8 [ Hebrew: a thing of Belial.] An euill disease, say they, cleaueth fast vnto him; and now that he lyeth, he shall rise vp no more.
9 [ Joh_13:18.] Yea [ Hebrew: the man of my peace.] mine owne familiar friend in whom I trusted, which did eate of my bread, hath [ Hebrew: magnified.] lift vp his heele against me.
10 But thou, O Lord, be mercifull vnto mee, and raise me up vp that I may requite them.
11 By this I know that thou fauourest
[Dauids hope in trouble.]
me: because mine enemie doeth not triumph ouer me.
12 And as for me, thou vpholdest me in mine integritie; and settest me before thy face for euer.
13 Blessed bee the Lord God of Israel, from euerlasting, and to euerlasting. Amen, and Amen.
