11 “But you, Lord, take note of me to raise me up
    that I may repay them.”[a]

13 In my integrity may you support me
    and let me stand in your presence forever.

  1. 41:11 That I may repay them: the healing itself is an act of judgment through which God decides for the psalmist and against the false friends. The prayer is not necessarily for strength to punish enemies.

11 I know that you are pleased with me,(A)
    for my enemy does not triumph over me.(B)

    and set me in your presence forever.(E)
