3:
The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou
wilt make all 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, 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; when he goeth abroad, he telleth it. |
|
7: All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do
they devise my hurt. |
|
8: An evil disease, say they, cleaveth fast unto him: and now
that he lieth he shall rise up no more. |
|
9: Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did
eat 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 favourest 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, and to
everlasting. Amen, and Amen. |
