1 Blessed is the one who has regard for the poor; in the day of disaster, Yahweh delivers him.
2 Yahweh protects him and keeps him alive; he is blessed in the land, and you do not give him into the will of his enemies.
3 Yahweh sustains him on his sick bed. In his illness, you restore to health.
4 As for me, I said, “O Yahweh, be gracious to me. Heal me, for I have sinned against you.”
5 My enemies speak evil about me, “When will he die and his name perish?”
6 And when one comes to see me, he speaks falsely; his heart gathers disaster for itself. He goes out to the street; he speaks.
