Psalm 22:8–12

8 “He trusts in the Lord,” they say,

“let the Lord rescue him.

Let him deliver him,

since he delights in him.”

9 Yet you brought me out of the womb;

you made me trust in you, even at my mother’s breast.

10 From birth I was cast on you;

from my mother’s womb you have been my God.

11 Do not be far from me,

for trouble is near

and there is no one to help.

12 Many bulls surround me;

strong bulls of Bashan encircle me.

8 He trusted on the Lord that he would deliver him:

Let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.

9 But thou art he that took me out of the womb:

Thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother’s breasts.

10 I was cast upon thee from the womb:

Thou art my God from 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:

Strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.

8 “Is this the one who relies on the Lord?

Then let the Lord save him!

If the Lord loves him so much,

let the Lord rescue him!”

9 Yet you brought me safely from my mother’s womb

and led me to trust you at my mother’s breast.

10 I was thrust into your arms at my birth.

You have been my God from the moment I was born.

11 Do not stay so far from me,

for trouble is near,

and no one else can help me.

12 My enemies surround me like a herd of bulls;

fierce bulls of Bashan have hemmed me in!

8 “He trusted in the Lord, let Him rescue Him;

Let Him deliver Him, since He delights in Him!”

9 But You are He who took Me out of the womb;

You made Me trust while on My mother’s breasts.

10 I was cast upon You from birth.

From My mother’s womb

You have been My God.

11 Be not far from Me,

For trouble is near;

For there is none to help.

12 Many bulls have surrounded Me;

Strong bulls of Bashan have encircled Me.

8 They say, “Turn to the Lord for help.

Maybe he will save you.

If he likes you,

maybe he will rescue you.”

9 You had my mother give birth to me.

You made me trust you

while I was just a baby.

10 I have leaned on you since the day I was born;

you have been my God since my mother gave me birth.

11 So don’t be far away from me.

Now trouble is near,

and there is no one to help.

12 People have surrounded me like angry bulls.

Like the strong bulls of Bashan, they are on every side.

8 Commit thyself unto Jehovah; let him deliver him:

Let him rescue him, seeing he delighteth in him.

9 But thou art he that took me out of the womb;

Thou didst make me trust when I was upon my mother’s breasts.

10 I was cast upon thee from the womb;

Thou art my God since my mother bare me.

11 Be not far from me; for trouble is near;

For there is none to help.

12 Many bulls have compassed me;

Strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.

8 Commit it to Jehovah—let him rescue him; let him deliver him, because he delighteth in him! 9 But thou art he that took me out of the womb; thou didst make me trust, upon my mother’s breasts. 10 I was cast upon thee from the womb; thou art my •God from my mother’s belly.

11 Be not far from me, for trouble is near; for there is none to help. 12 Many bulls have encompassed me; Bashan’s strong ones have beset me round.

8 “Put yourself in the Lord’s hands. 

Let the Lord save him! 

Let God rescue him since he is pleased with him!” 

9 Indeed, you are the one who brought me out of the womb, 

the one who made me feel safe at my mother’s breasts. 

10 I was placed in your care from birth. 

From my mother’s womb you have been my God. 

11 Do not be so far away from me. 

Trouble is near, and there is no one to help. 

12 Many bulls have surrounded me. 

Strong bulls from Bashan have encircled me. 

8 “He relies on the Lord;

let Him rescue him;

let the Lord deliver him,

since He takes pleasure in him.”

9 You took me from the womb,

making me secure while at my mother’s breast.

10 I was given over to You at birth;

You have been my God from my mother’s womb.

11 Do not be far from me, because distress is near

and there is no one to help.

12 Many bulls surround me;

strong ones of Bashan encircle me.

8 “Commit your cause to the Lord; let him deliver—

let him rescue the one in whom he delights!”

9 Yet it was you who took me from the womb;

you kept me safe on my mother’s breast.

10 On you I was cast from my birth,

and since my mother bore me you have been my God.

11 Do not be far from me,

for trouble is near,

and there is no one to help.

12 Many bulls encircle me;

strong bulls of Bashan surround me;

8 “He trusts Yahweh. Let him rescue him.

Let him deliver him because he delights in him.”

9 Yet you took me from the belly;

you made me trust while on my mother’s breasts.

10 On you I was cast from the womb.

From my mother’s belly you have been my God.

11 Do not be far from me

because trouble is near;

because there is no helper.

12 Many bulls have encircled me;

mighty bulls of Bashan have surrounded me.

8 They say, “He trusts in the Lord.

Let the Lord help him.

If the Lord is pleased with him,

let him save him.”

9 But you brought me out of my mother’s body.

You made me trust in you

even when I was at my mother’s breast.

10 From the time I was born, you took good care of me.

Ever since I came out of my mother’s body, you have been my God.

11 Don’t be far away from me.

Trouble is near,

and there is no one to help me.

12 Many enemies are all around me.

They are like strong bulls from the land of Bashan.

8 “Commit yourself to the Lord; let Him deliver him;

Let Him rescue him, because He delights in him.”

9 Yet You are He who brought me forth from the womb;

You made me trust when upon my mother’s breasts.

10 Upon You I was cast from birth;

You have been my God from my mother’s womb.

11 Be not far from me, for trouble is near;

For there is none to help.

12 Many bulls have surrounded me;

Strong bulls of Bashan have encircled me.
