3The Lord will sustain him on his sickbed;
you will heal him on the bed where he lies.#Jr 17:14

heal me, for I have sinned against you.”#Ps 6:2; 51:4
5My enemies speak maliciously about me:
“When will he die and be forgotten?” #Ps 38:12

he stores up evil in his heart;
he goes out and talks.#Ps 12:2; 62:4; Pr 26:24–26

they plan to harm me.#Ps 56:5

and he won’t rise again from where he lies!” #Ps 71:10–11
9Even my friend#41:9 Lit Even a man of my peace in whom I trusted,
one who ate my bread,
has raised his heel against me.#Jb 19:19; Ps 55:12–13; Jn 13:18
10But you, Lord, be gracious to me and raise me up;
then I will repay them.#Ps 9:13

my enemy does not shout in triumph over me.#Ps 25:2
12You supported me because of my integrity#Ps 37:17
and set me in your presence forever.#Ps 21:6

from everlasting to everlasting.
Amen and amen.#Ps 72:18–19; 89:52
