Psalms 41:7-12

⁷All those who hate me whisper to others about me, and they hope/desire that very bad things will happen to me.

⁸They say, “He will soon die because of his being sick; he will never get up from his bed before he dies.”

⁹Even my best friend, whom I trusted very much, who often ate with me, has ◄betrayed me/put me into my enemies' hands► IDM.

¹⁰But Yahweh, be merciful to me, and enable me to become healthy again. When you do that, I will be able to ◄pay back my enemies/get revenge on my enemies/cause my enemies to suffer like they caused me to suffer►.

¹¹If you enable me to do that, with the result that my enemies do not defeat me, I will know that you are pleased with me.

¹²I will know that it is because I have done what is right that you have helped me, and I will know that you will let me be with you forever.
