New American Bible (Revised Edition)
4 The Lord sustains him on his sickbed,
you turn down his bedding whenever he is ill.[a]

heal me, although I have sinned against you.
6 My enemies say bad things against me:
‘When will he die and his name be forgotten?’
Footnotes
- 41:4 You turn down his bedding whenever he is ill: the Hebrew is obscure. It suggests ongoing attentive care of the one who is sick.
