Psalms 22:1-8

1My God, my God, why have you abandoned me? Why are you so far from my deliverance and from my words of groaning?

2My God, I cry by day, but you do not answer, by night, yet I have no rest.

3But you are holy, enthroned on the praises of Israel.

4Our ancestors trusted in you; they trusted, and you rescued them.

5They cried to you and were set free; they trusted in you and were not disgraced.

6But I am a worm and not a man, scorned by mankind and despised by people.

7Everyone who sees me mocks me; they sneer and shake their heads:

8“He relies on the Lord; let him save him; let the Lord rescue him, since he takes pleasure in him.”
