Ang Dalangin ng Taong may Sakit

41 Mapalad ang taong nagmamalasakit sa mga mahihirap.
    Tutulungan siya ng Panginoon sa panahon ng kaguluhan.
Ipagtatanggol siya ng Panginoon, at iingatan ang kanyang buhay.
    Pagpapalain din siya sa lupain natin.
    At hindi siya isusuko sa kanyang mga kaaway.
Tutulungan siya ng Panginoon kung siya ay may sakit,
    at pagagalingin siya sa kanyang karamdaman.
Sinabi ko,
    “O Panginoon, nagkasala ako sa inyo.
    Maawa kayo sa akin, at pagalingin ako.”
Ang aking mga kaaway ay nagsasalita laban sa akin.
    Sinasabi nila,
    “Kailan pa ba siya mamamatay upang makalimutan na siya?”
Kapag dumadalaw sila sa akin, nagkukunwari silang nangungumusta,
    pero nag-iipon lang pala sila ng masasabi laban sa akin.
    Kapag silaʼy lumabas na, ikinakalat nila ito.
Ang lahat ng galit sa akin ay masama ang iniisip tungkol sa akin,
    at pinagbubulung-bulungan nila ito.
Sinasabi nila,
    “Malala na ang karamdaman niyan,
    kaya hindi na iyan makakatayo!”
Kahit ang pinakamatalik kong kaibigan na kasalo ko lagi sa pagkain at pinagkakatiwalaan –
    nagawa akong pagtaksilan!
10 Ngunit kayo Panginoon, akoʼy inyong kahabagan.
    Pagalingin nʼyo ako upang makaganti na ako sa aking mga kaaway.
11 Alam ko na kayoʼy nalulugod sa akin,
    dahil hindi ako natatalo ng aking mga kaaway.
12 Dahil akoʼy taong matuwid,
    tinutulungan nʼyo ako at pinapanatili sa inyong presensya magpakailanman.

13 Purihin ang Panginoon, ang Dios ng Israel, magpakailanman.
    Amen! Amen!

The Psalmist in Sickness Complains of Enemies and False Friends.

For the music director. A Psalm of David.

41 Blessed is one who (A)considers the [a]helpless;
The Lord will save him (B)on a day of [b]trouble.
The Lord will (C)protect him and keep him alive,
And he will be called [c](D)blessed upon the earth;
And (E)do not turn him over to the desire of his enemies.
The Lord will sustain him upon his sickbed;
In his illness, You [d]restore him to health.

As for me, I said, “Lord, be gracious to me;
(F)Heal my soul, for (G)I have sinned against You.”
My enemies (H)speak evil against me,
“When will he die, and his name perish?”
And [e]when he comes to see me, he (I)speaks [f]empty words;
His heart gathers wickedness to itself;
When he goes outside, he tells it.
All who hate me whisper together against me;
They (J)plot my harm against me, saying,
“A wicked thing is poured out [g]upon him,
So that when he lies down, he will (K)not get up again.”
Even my [h](L)close friend in whom I trusted,
Who ate my bread,
Has lifted up his heel against me.

10 But You, Lord, be gracious to me and (M)raise me up,
That I may repay them.
11 By this I know that (N)You are pleased with me,
Because (O)my enemy does not shout in triumph over me.
12 As for me, (P)You uphold me in my integrity,
And You place me (Q)in Your presence forever.

13 (R)Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel,
From everlasting to everlasting.
Amen and Amen.

41 Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the Lord will deliver him in time of trouble.

The Lord will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies.

The Lord will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness.

I said, Lord, be merciful unto me: heal my soul; for I have sinned against thee.

Mine enemies speak evil of me, When shall he die, and his name perish?

And if he come to see me, he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth iniquity to itself; when he goeth abroad, he telleth it.

All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do they devise my hurt.

An evil disease, say they, cleaveth fast unto him: and now that he lieth he shall rise up no more.

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.
