New Testament

Psalm 40:3-8 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

3. May the Lord preserve him and give him life, and make him blessed upon the earth. And may he not hand him over to the will of his adversaries.

4. May the Lord bring him help on his bed of sorrow. In his infirmity, you have changed his entire covering.

5. I said, "O Lord, be merciful to me. Heal my soul, because I have sinned against you."

6. My enemies have spoken evils against me. When will he die and his name perish?

7. And when he came in to see me, he was speaking emptiness. His heart gathered iniquity to itself. He went outside, and he was speaking in the same way.

8. All my enemies were whispering against me. They were thinking up evils against me.
