1 Happy are those who are concerned for the poor;the Lord will help them when they are in trouble.
2 The Lord will protect them and preserve their lives;he will make them happy in the land;he will not abandon them to the power of their enemies.
3 The Lord will help them when they are sickand will restore them to health.
4 I said, “I have sinned against you, Lord;be merciful to me and heal me.”
5 My enemies say cruel things about me.They want me to die and be forgotten.
