Psalms 41:6-12 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

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.

7. All who hate me speak together against me. Against me they assume the worst for me:

8. “A ruinous thing is poured out on him, and now that he lies down, he will not rise up again.”

9. Even my close friend, whom I trusted, who ate my bread, has lifted his heel against me.

10. But you, O Yahweh, be gracious to me and raise me up that I may repay them.

11. By this I know that you delight in me: because my enemy has not shouted in triumph over me.

12. As for me, you have upheld me in my integrity, and you have set me in your presence forever.
