Psalms 41:2-7

²He will keep them safe, happy, and long in the land, and not give them up to the rage of their foes.

³The Lord will sustain them on bed of languishing; tending their sickness, as long as they lie.

⁴For this cause I say, “Lord, show me your favour; heal me, because I have sinned against you.”

⁵My enemies speak of me nothing but evil, “When will he die, and his name pass away?”

⁶When one comes to see me, their words ring hollow; their heart keeps gathering mischief the while; and when they go out, they give it speech.

⁷In secret they whisper together against me, all those who hate me plot evil against me.
