Psalms 41:1-5 Common English Bible (CEB)

1. Those who pay close attention to the poor are truly happy!The Lord rescues them during troubling times.

2. The Lord protects them and keeps them alive;they are widely regarded throughout the land as happy people.You won’t hand them over to the will of their enemies.

3. The Lord will strengthen them when they are lying in bed, sick.You will completely transform the place where they lie ill.

4. But me? I said, "Lord, have mercy on me!Heal me because I have sinned against you."

5. My enemies speak maliciously about me:"When will he die and his name disappear?"
