The title says this is a Psalm by David. Blessed is he who thinks about the poor. God will help him in a bad day. God will keep him alive. God will help him when he is sick in bed.

David asked God, Have mercy on me! Heal me. A friend had turned against David. But God held David up. David said, Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel! Amen and amen.
