22:2 \22:1\ My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? [why art thou so] far from helping me, [and from] the words of my roaring?
22:3 \22:2\O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.
22:4 \22:3\But thou [art] holy, [O thou] that inhabitest the praises of Israel.
22:5 \22:4\Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.
22:6 \22:5\They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.
22:7 \22:6\But I [am] a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.
22:8 \22:7\All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, [saying],
22:9 \22:8\He trusted on the LORD [that] he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.
22:10 \22:9\But thou [art] he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope [when I was] upon my mother's breasts.
22:11 \22:10\I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou [art] my God from my mother's belly.
22:12 \22:11\Be not far from me; for trouble [is] near; for [there is] none to help.
22:13 \22:12\Many bulls have compassed me: strong [bulls] of Bashan have beset me round.
22:14 \22:13\They gaped upon me [with] their mouths, [as] a ravening and a roaring lion.
22:15 \22:14\I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.
22:16 \22:15\My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.
22:17 \22:16\For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.
22:18 \22:17\I may tell all my bones: they look [and] stare upon me.
22:19 \22:18\They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.
22:20 \22:19\But be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste thee to help me.
22:21 \22:20\Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.
22:22 \22:21\Save me from the lion's mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns.
22:23 \22:22\I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.
22:24 \22:23\Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.
22:25 \22:24\For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.
22:26 \22:25\My praise [shall be] of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.
22:27 \22:26\The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that seek him: your heart shall live for ever.
22:28 \22:27\All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.
22:29 \22:28\For the kingdom [is] the LORD'S: and he [is] the governor among the nations.
22:30 \22:29\All [they that be] fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul.
22:31 \22:30\A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.
22:32 \22:31\They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done [this].
