1 Those who pay close attention to the poor are truly happy!The Lord rescues them during troubling times.
2 The Lord protects them and keeps them alive;they are widely regarded throughout the land as happy people.You won’t hand them over to the will of their enemies.
3 The Lord will strengthen them when they are lying in bed, sick.You will completely transform the place where they lie ill.
4 But me? I said, "Lord, have mercy on me!Heal me because I have sinned against you."
5 My enemies speak maliciously about me:"When will he die and his name disappear?"
