Chapter 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.  

 

 

--

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.  

 

 

--

3


 

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

 

 

--

4


 

  I -- I said, 'O Jehovah, favour me, Heal my soul, for I did sin against Thee,'  

 

 

--

5


 

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

 

 

--

6


 

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

 

 

--

7


 

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

 

 

--

10


 

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

 

 

--

11


 

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

 

 

--

13


 

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

 

 

--
