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 shallbe 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 turn him on 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 and say, "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, and when he goeth out, he telleth it.

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

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

⁹ Yea, mine own familiar friend in whom I trusted, that ate 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 favorest 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 to everlasting! Amen and Amen.
