41:9 The psalmist was betrayed by a close friend (lit “a man of my peace”) who joined his enemies in speaking evil of him (vv. 5-7). While many people could appropriate these words to their experiences, the greatest act of betrayal was that of Judas (Mt 26:23; Mk 14:18; Lk 22:21; Jn 13:21).

41:13 The book of Psalms is divided into five books; this doxology (expression of praise) marks the end of Book I.
