Psalm 41:8 in context

The verses around it, from Psalm 41.

4 I said, “O LORD, be gracious to me; heal me, for I have sinned against You.”

5 My enemies say with malice: “When will he die and be forgotten?”

6 My visitor speaks falsehood; he gathers slander in his heart; he goes out and spreads it abroad.

7 All who hate me whisper against me; they imagine the worst for me:

8 “A vile disease has been poured into him; he will never get up from where he lies!”

9 Even my close friend whom I trusted, the one who shared my bread, has lifted up his heel against me.

10 But You, O LORD, be gracious to me and raise me up, that I may repay them.

11 By this I know that You delight in me, for my enemy does not triumph over me.

12 In my integrity You uphold me and set me in Your presence forever.
