    The Lord will deliver him in time of trouble.
  • Psalm 41a

    For the director of music. A psalm of David.

    Blessed are those who have regard for the weak;
    the Lord delivers them in times of trouble.
  • The Lord will preserve him and keep him alive,
    And he will be blessed on the earth;
    You will not deliver him to the will of his enemies.
  • The Lord protects and preserves them —
    they are counted among the blessed in the land —
    he does not give them over to the desire of their foes.
  • The Lord will strengthen him on his bed of illness;
    You will [b]sustain him on his sickbed.
  • The Lord sustains them on their sickbed
    and restores them from their bed of illness.
  • I said, “Lord, be merciful to me;
    Heal my soul, for I have sinned against You.”
  • I said, “Have mercy on me, Lord;
    heal me, for I have sinned against you.”
  • My enemies speak evil of me:
    “When will he die, and his name perish?”
  • My enemies say of me in malice,
    “When will he die and his name perish?”
  • And if he comes to see me, he speaks [c]lies;
    His heart gathers iniquity to itself;
    When he goes out, he tells it.
  • When one of them comes to see me,
    he speaks falsely, while his heart gathers slander;
    then he goes out and spreads it around.
  • All who hate me whisper together against me;
    Against me they [d]devise my hurt.
  • All my enemies whisper together against me;
    they imagine the worst for me, saying,
  • “An[e] evil disease,” they say, “clings to him.
    And now that he lies down, he will rise up no more.”
  • “A vile disease has afflicted him;
    he will never get up from the place where he lies.”
  • Even my own familiar friend in whom I trusted,
    Who ate my bread,
    Has [f]lifted up his heel against me.
  • Even my close friend,
    someone I trusted,
    one who shared my bread,
    has turnedb against me.
  • But You, O Lord, be merciful to me, and raise me up,
    That I may repay them.
  • But may you have mercy on me, Lord;
    raise me up, that I may repay them.
  • By this I know that You are well pleased with me,
    Because my enemy does not triumph over me.
  • I know that you are pleased with me,
    for my enemy does not triumph over me.
  • As for me, You uphold me in my integrity,
    And set me before Your face forever.
  • Because of my integrity you uphold me
    and set me in your presence forever.
  • Blessed be the Lord God of Israel
    From everlasting to everlasting!
    Amen and Amen.

    from everlasting to everlasting.
