13sThey †gaped upon me with their mouths,

As a ravening and a roaring lion.

14I 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.

15My strength is xdried up like a potsherd;

And ymy tongue cleaveth to my jaws;

And thou hast brought me into the dust of death.

16For zdogs have compassed me:

The assembly of the wicked have zzinclosed me:

aThey pierced my hands and my feet.

17I may tell all my bones:

bThey look and stare upon me.

18cThey part my garments among them,

And cast lots upon my vesture.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

they open wide their mouths at me,

like a ravening and roaring lion.

I am poured out like water,

and all my bones are out of joint;

my heart is like wax;

it is melted within my breast;

my strength is dried up like a potsherd,

and my tongue sticks to my jaws;

you lay me in the dust of death.

For dogs encompass me;

a company of evildoers encircles me;

they have pierced my hands and feet—

I can count all my bones—

they stare and gloat over me;

they divide my garments among them,

and for my clothing they cast lots.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

Roaring lions that tear their prey

open their mouths wide against me.

I am poured out like water,

and all my bones are out of joint.

My heart has turned to wax;

it has melted within me.

My mouth is dried up like a potsherd,

and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth;

you lay me in the dust of death.

Dogs surround me,

a pack of villains encircles me;

they pierce my hands and my feet.

All my bones are on display;

people stare and gloat over me.

They divide my clothes among them

and cast lots for my garment.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

They open their mouths against me—

lions, mauling and roaring.

I am poured out like water,

and all my bones are disjointed;

my heart is like wax,

melting within me.

My strength is dried up like baked clay;

my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth.

You put me into the dust of death.

For dogs have surrounded me;

a gang of evildoers has closed in on me;

they pierced my hands and my feet.

I can count all my bones;

people look and stare at me.

They divided my garments among themselves,

and they cast lots for my clothing.

NLTNew Living Translation

Like lions they open their jaws against me,

roaring and tearing into their prey.

My life is poured out like water,

and all my bones are out of joint.

My heart is like wax,

melting within me.

My strength has dried up like sunbaked clay.

My tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth.

You have laid me in the dust and left me for dead.

My enemies surround me like a pack of dogs;

an evil gang closes in on me.

They have pierced my hands and feet.

I can count all my bones.

My enemies stare at me and gloat.

They divide my garments among themselves

and throw dice for my clothing.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

They open their mouth against me

like a lion tearing and roaring.

I am poured out like water,

and all my bones are out of joint.

My heart is like wax;

it is melted within me.

My strength is dry like a potsherd,

and my tongue is sticking to my jaws;

and you have placed me in the dust of death.

Because dogs have surrounded me;

a gang of evildoers has encircled me.

Like the lion they are at my hands and my feet.

I can count all my bones;

they gaze, they look at me.

They divide my garments among them,

and for my clothing they cast lots.
