From Textus Receptus
Psa 41:1 <To the chiefe musition, a psalme of Dauid.> Blessed is he that considereth ye poore: God wyll delyuer hym in the tyme of trouble. Psa 41:2 God wyll preserue hym & kepe him aliue: he shalbe blessed vpon the earth, and [thou O God] wylt not deliuer him into the wyll of his enemies. Psa 41:3 God wyll comfort hym when he lyeth sicke vpon his bed: thou [O God] wylt turne vpside downe all his bed in his sicknesse. Psa 41:4 I sayde, O God be mercifull vnto me: heale my soule, for I haue sinned agaynst thee. Psa 41:5 Myne enemies speake euyl of me: when shall he dye, and his name perishe? Psa 41:6 But yf [any of them] came to visite me, he spake vanitie: his heart conceaued vngodlynesse within hym selfe, & when he came foorth a doores he vttered it. Psa 41:7 All they that hated me whispered together: they imagined euyl agaynst me. Psa 41:8 [They sayde] some great mischiefe is lyghted vpon hym: and he that lyeth sicke on his bed, shall ryse vp no more. Psa 41:9 Yea besides this, euen myne owne friende whom I trusted: which dyd also eate of my bread, hath kicked very much agaynst me. Psa 41:10 But be thou mercifull vnto me O God: rayse me vp agayne, and I shall rewarde them. Psa 41:11 By this I knowe thou fauouredst me: in that myne enemie doth not triumph agaynst me. Psa 41:12 And when I am in my best case, thou vpholdest me: and thou wylt set me before thy face for euer. Psa 41:13 Blessed be God the Lorde of Israel: worlde without ende, Amen, Amen.
