Context of Psalms 22:9
7All who see me taunt me; they mock me and shake their heads. 8They say, “Commit yourself to the Lord! Let the Lord rescue him! Let the Lord deliver him, for he delights in him.” Yes, you are the one who brought me out from the womb and made me feel secure on my mother’s breasts. 10I have been dependent on you since birth; from the time I came out of my mother’s womb you have been my God. 11Do not remain far away from me, for trouble is near and I have no one to help me.
