Psalms 22:22-31

22I will declare your name to my countrymen! In the middle of the assembly I will praise you!

23You loyal followers of the Lord, praise him! All you descendants of Jacob, honor him! All you descendants of Israel, stand in awe of him!

24For he did not despise or detest the suffering of the oppressed; he did not ignore him; when he cried out to him, he responded.

25You are the reason I offer praise in the great assembly; I will fulfill my promises before the Lord’s loyal followers.

26Let the oppressed eat and be filled! Let those who seek his help praise the Lord! May you live forever!

27Let all the people of the earth acknowledge the Lord and turn to him! Let all the nations worship you!

28For the Lord is king and rules over the nations.

29All of the thriving people of the earth will join the celebration and worship; all those who are descending into the grave will bow before him, including those who cannot preserve their lives.

30A whole generation will serve him; they will tell the next generation about the sovereign Lord.

31They will come and tell about his saving deeds; they will tell a future generation what he has accomplished.
