Psalms 22:1-31

112My GodH410, my GodH410, whyH4100 have You forsakenH5800 me? 3FarH7350 from my 4helpH3444 are the wordsH1697 of my 56groaningH7581.2My GodH430, I 7cryH7121 outH7121 by dayH3119, but You do not answerH6030; And by nightH3915, but 8I have noH3808 restH1747.3Yet 9You are holyH6918, You who 10are enthronedH3427 upon 11the praisesH8416 of IsraelH3478.4In You our fathersH1 12trustedH982; They trustedH982 and You 13rescuedH6403 them.5To You they criedH2199 outH2199 and they fledH4422 toH4422 safetyH4422; 14In You they trustedH982 and wereH954 not 15disappointedH954.

6But I am a 16wormH8439 and not a personH376, A 17disgraceH2781 of mankindH120 and 18despisedH959 by the peopleH5971.7AllH3605 who seeH7200 me 19derideH3932 me; They 20sneerH6362H8193, they 21shakeH5128 their headsH7218, saying,8“22TurnH1556 23him overH1556 to the LordH3068; 24let Him saveH6403 him; Let Him rescueH5337 him, becauseH3588 He delightsH2654 in him.”

9YetH3588 You are He who 25broughtH1518 me forthH1518 from the wombH990; You made me trustH982 when upon my mother’sH517 breastsH7699.10I was castH7993 upon You 26from 27birthH7358; You have been my GodH410 from my mother’sH517 wombH990.

1128Do not beH7368 farH7368 from me, for 29troubleH6869 is nearH7138; For thereH369 isH369 30noH369 oneH369 to helpH5826.12ManyH7227 31bullsH6499 have surroundedH5437 me; StrongH47 bulls of 32BashanH1316 have encircledH3803 me.13They 33openH6475 their mouthsH6310 wideH6475 at me, As a raveningH2963 and roaringH7580 34lionH743.14I am 35pouredH8210 outH8210 like waterH4325, And allH3605 my 36bonesH6106 are out of jointH6504; My 37heartH3820 is like waxH1749; It is meltedH4549 withinH8432 38me.15My 39strengthH3581 is driedH3001 upH3001 like a pieceH2789 ofH2789 potteryH2789, And 40my tongueH3956 clingsH1692 to my jawsH4455; And You 41layH8239 me 42in the dustH6083 of deathH4194.16For 43dogsH3611 have surroundedH5437 me; 44A bandH5712 of evildoersH7489 has encompassedH5362 me; 45They 46piercedH3564 my handsH3027 and my feetH7272.17I can countH5608 allH3605 my bonesH6106. 47They lookH5027, they stareH7200 at me;18They 48divideH2505 my garmentsH899 among them, And they castH5307 lotsH1486 for my clothingH3830.

19But You, LordH3068, 49do not beH7368 farH7368 awayH7368; You who are my helpH360, 50hurryH2363 to my assistanceH5833.20SaveH5337 my 51soulH5315 from 52the swordH2719, My 53onlyH3173 life from the 54powerH3027 of the dogH3611.21SaveH3467 me from the 55lion’sH743 mouthH6310; From the hornsH7161 of the 56wildH7214 oxenH7214 You 57answerH6030 me.

22I will 58proclaimH5608 Your nameH8034 to my brothersH251; In the midstH8432 of the assemblyH6951 I will praiseH1984 You.2359You who fearH3372 the LordH3068, praiseH1984 Him; AllH3605 you 60descendantsH2233 of JacobH3290, 61glorifyH3513 Him, And 62standH1481 inH1481 aweH1481 of Him, allH3605 you 63descendantsH2233 of IsraelH3478.24For He has 64not despisedH959 norH3808 scornedH8262 the sufferingH6039 of the afflictedH6041; NorH3808 has He 65hiddenH5641 His faceH6440 from him; But 66when he criedH7768 to Him forH7768 helpH7768, He heardH8085.

25From You comes 67my praiseH8416 in the greatH7227 assemblyH6951; I shall 68payH7999 my vowsH5088 beforeH5048 those who fearH3372 Him.26The 69afflictedH6035 will eatH398 and 70beH7646 satisfiedH7646; Those who seekH1875 Him will 71praiseH1984 the LordH3068. May your 72heartH3824 liveH2421 foreverH5703!27AllH3605 the 73endsH657 of the earthH776 will rememberH2142 and turnH7725 to the LordH3068, And allH3605 the 74familiesH4940 of the nationsH1471 will worshipH2331 beforeH6440 75You.28For the 76kingdomH4410 is the Lord’sH3068 And He 77rulesH4910 over the nationsH1471.29AllH3605 the 7879prosperousH1879 of the earthH776 will eatH398 and worshipH2331, AllH3605 those who 80goH3381 downH3381 to the dustH6083 will kneelH3766 beforeH6440 Him, Even he who 8182cannotH3808 keepH2421 his soulH5315 aliveH2421.30A 8384posterityH2233 will serveH5647 Him; It will be toldH5608 of the LordH136 to 85the coming generationH1755.31They will comeH935 and 86will declareH5046 His righteousnessH6666 To a peopleH5971 87who will be bornH3205, that He has performedH6213 it.
