BOODSKAP VAN DIE DAG:

PSALM 41.

2. Afrikaans - (Ou Afrikaanse Vertaling)

[Psalm 41:2-5; 10-14]

2. Welgeluksalig is hy wat ag gee op die arme; die Here sal hom red in die dag van onheil. 

3. Die Here sal hom bewaar en hom in die lewe hou; hy sal gelukkig gemaak word op die aarde. Ja, U kan hom nie oorgee  aan die begeerte van sy vyande nie. 

4. Die Here sal hom ondersteun op die siekbed; sy hele slaapplek verander U as hy krank is. 

5. Ek het gesê: "O Here, wees my genadig! Genees my want ek het teen U gesondig!"

10. Selfs die man wat met my in vrede lewe, op wie ek vertrou het, wat my brood eet, het die hakskeen teen my opgelig. 

11. Maar U O Here, wees my genadig en rig my op, dat ek hulle dit kan vergelde!

12. Hieraan weet ek dat U 'n welbehae in my het: dat my vyand oor my nie juig nie. 

13. My tog, in my opregtheid ondersteun U my, en stel my voor U aangesig tot in ewigheid. 

14. Geloofd sy die Here, die God van Israel, van ewigheid tot in ewigheid. Amen, ja amen.
