- 1Blessed is the one who considers the poor — the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.
- 2The LORD will preserve him and keep him alive; he shall be blessed upon the earth, and you will not deliver him to the will of his enemies.
- 3The LORD will strengthen him on the bed of sickness; you will make all his bed in his sickness.
- 4I said, 'LORD, be merciful to me. Heal my soul, for I have sinned against you.'
- 5My enemies speak evil of me: 'When will he die and his name perish?'
- 6And if he comes to see me, he speaks vanity. His heart gathers iniquity to itself; when he goes out, he tells it.
- 7All who hate me whisper together against me; against me they devise my hurt.
- 8They say, 'An evil disease clings fast to him, and now that he lies down, he shall rise up no more.'
- 9Even my own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, who ate of my bread, has lifted up his heel against me.
- 10But you, O LORD, be merciful to me and raise me up, that I may repay them.
- 11By this I know that you favor me, because my enemy does not triumph over me.
- 12And as for me, you uphold me in my integrity, and set me before your face forever.
- 13Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.
