Psalm 41:4-10

View Full Chapter

4I said, “Have mercy on me, LORD ; heal me, for I have sinned against you.”

5My enemies say of me in malice, “When will he die and his name perish?”

6When one of them comes to see me, he speaks falsely, while his heart gathers slander; then he goes out and spreads it around.

7All my enemies whisper together against me; they imagine the worst for me, saying,

8“A vile disease has afflicted him; he will never get up from the place where he lies.”

9Even my close friend, someone I trusted, one who shared my bread, has turned Hebrew has lifted up his heel against me.

10But may you have mercy on me, LORD ; raise me up, that I may repay them.
