Psalms:41:1-13
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Blessed is he that considereth the poor :
the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble .
*
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 .
*
The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing :
thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness .
*
I said ,
LORD ,
be merciful unto me :
heal my soul ;
for I have sinned against thee .
*
Mine enemies speak evil of me ,
When shall he die ,
and his name perish ?
*
And if he come to see me ,
he speaketh vanity :
his heart gathereth iniquity to itself ;
when he goeth abroad ,
he telleth it .
*
All that hate me whisper together against me :
against me do they devise my hurt .
*
An evil disease ,
say they ,
cleaveth fast unto him :
and now that he lieth he shall rise up no more .
*
Yea ,
mine own familiar friend ,
in whom I trusted ,
which did eat of my bread ,
hath lifted up his heel against me .
*
But thou ,
O LORD ,
be merciful unto me ,
and raise me up ,
that I may requite them .
*
By this I know that thou favourest me ,
because mine enemy doth not triumph over me .
*
And as for me ,
thou upholdest me in mine integrity ,
and settest me before thy face for ever .
*
Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting ,
and to everlasting .
Amen ,
and Amen .
