41 |
| 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.
Psalms 55:12-13

| 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. |
