Psalm 41:4-6
New Catholic Bible

4 The Lord will sustain him on his sickbed
    and bring him back to health.
5 Once I prayed, “O Lord, have mercy on me;
    heal me, for I have sinned[a] against you.
6 In their malice my enemies say of me,
    ‘When will he die and his name be forgotten?’

Footnotes

  1. Psalm 41:5 Sinned: the psalmist acknowledges his sin and asks for forgiveness and healing—in keeping with the idea that sickness was a divine punishment for sin (see Ps 107:17; Job 32:3). In the cure of the man born blind, Jesus was to indicate that such was not the case (see Jn 9:2f).
