Psalm 22:11–21

11 Be not far from Me,

For trouble is near;

For there is none to help.

12 kMany bulls have surrounded Me;

Strong bulls of lBashan have encircled Me.

13 mThey 4gape at Me with their mouths,

Like a raging and roaring lion.

14 I am poured out like water,

nAnd all My bones are out of joint;

My heart is like wax;

It has melted 5within Me.

15 oMy strength is dried up like a potsherd,

And pMy tongue clings to My jaws;

You have brought Me to the dust of death.

16 For dogs have surrounded Me;

The congregation of the wicked has enclosed Me.

qThey 6pierced My hands and My feet;

17 I can count all My bones.

rThey look and stare at Me.

18 sThey divide My garments among them,

And for My clothing they cast lots.

19 But You, O Lord, do not be far from Me;

O My Strength, hasten to help Me!

20 Deliver Me from the sword,

tMy 7precious life from the power of the dog.

21 uSave Me from the lion’s mouth

And from the horns of the wild oxen!

vYou have answered Me.
