Psalm 41:1-3

O Lord, Be Gracious to Me

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

1
e Blessed is the one who considers the poor! 1
f In the day of trouble the Lord delivers him;
 2 the Lord protects him and keeps him alive;
he is called blessed in the land;
you g do not give him up to the will of his enemies.
 3 The Lord sustains him on his sickbed;
in his illness you restore him to full health. 2
