Psalm 41 (summary): Blessed is he who has regard for the weak

This Davidic psalm for the director of music is a lament related to ill health and abandonment by a close friend. David says happy is he who cares for the weak because the Lord will deliver him, preserve him and sustain him when sick. David then cries to God to have mercy on him and forgive his sin. David says that all his enemies conspire against him and even his close friend has abandoned him. He cries to God for mercy and rests assured that he will be in God's presence for ever. He ends with praise to the Lord. Amen.

This psalm ended book 1 of psalms.
