Psalm 22:1–21
1 aMy God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? Why art thou so far †from helping me, and from the words of bmy roaring? 2 O my God, I cry bbin the daytime, but thou hearest not; And in the night season, and †am not silent. 3 But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the cpraises of Israel. 4 Our fathers trusted in thee: They trusted, and thou didst deliver them. 5 They dcried unto thee, and were delivered: eThey trusted in thee, and were not confounded. 6 But I am fa worm, and no man; A ffreproach of men, and gdespised of the people. 7 hAll they that see me laugh me to scorn: They †shoot out the lip, ithey shake the head, saying, 8 j†He trusted on the Lord that khe would deliver him: Let him deliver him, ||seeing he ldelighted in him. 9 But thou art he that mntook me out of the womb: Thou ||didst make me hope when I was upon my mother’s breasts. 10 I was ncast upon thee from the womb: Thou art my God ofrom my mother’s belly. 11 Be not far from me; for trouble is near; For there is †none to help. 12 Many bulls have compassed me: pStrong qbulls of Bashan have rbeset me round. 13 sThey †gaped upon me with their mouths, As a ravening and a roaring lion. 14 I am sspoured out like water, And all my bones are ||out of joint: tMy heart is ulike wax; It is tmelted in the midst of my bowels. 15 My strength is xdried up like a potsherd; And ymy tongue cleaveth to my jaws; And thou hast brought me into the dust of death. 16 For zdogs have compassed me: The assembly of the wicked have zzinclosed me: aThey pierced my hands and my feet. 17 I may tell all my bones: bThey look and stare upon me. 18 cThey part my garments among them, And cast lots upon my vesture. 19 But be not thou far dfrom me, O Lord: O my strength, haste thee to help me. 20 Deliver my soul from the sword; †My darling †from the power of the edog. 21 fSave me from the lion’s mouth: For thou hast gheard me from the horns of hthe unicorns.
