Context of Psalms 22:9
7Everyone that sees me laughs at me. They laugh and they shake their heads. 8They say, ‘He should trust in the Lord! The Lord should save him. If the Lord is really happy with him, the Lord should rescue him.’ Lord, you brought me safely to birth. You took care of me at my mother's breasts. 10From the day that I was born, I have always been in your care. You have been my God since my mother gave birth to me. 11So do not stay far from me now. Trouble is near to me, and there is nobody to help me.
