The Book of Psalms 41

Text size

1 Blessed is he that considereth the poor the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble ⚑

2 The LORD will preserve him and keep him alive and he shall be blessed upon the earth and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies ⚑

3 The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness ⚑

4 I said LORD be merciful unto me heal my soul for I have sinned against thee ⚑

5 Mine enemies speak evil of me When shall he die and his name perish ⚑

6 And if he come to see me he speaketh vanity his heart gathereth iniquity to itself when he goeth abroad he telleth it ⚑

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

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

9 Yea mine own familiar friend in whom I trusted which did eat of my bread hath lifted up his heel against me ⚑

10 But thou O LORD be merciful unto me and raise me up that I may requite them ⚑

11 By this I know that thou favourest me because mine enemy doth not triumph over me ⚑

12 And as for me thou upholdest me in mine integrity and settest me before thy face for ever ⚑

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