Psalms 22:1-21

11My GodH410, my GodH410, why hast thou forsakenH5800 me? why art thou so farH7350 from helpingH3444 me, and from the wordsH1697 of my roaringH7581?2

2O my GodH430, I cryH7121 in the daytimeH3119, but thou hearestH6030 not; and in the night seasonH3915, and am not silentH1747.3

3But thou art holyH6918, O thou that is enthroned inH3427 the praisesH8416 of IsraelH3478.4

4Our fathersH1 trustedH982 in thee: they trustedH982, and thou didst deliverH6403 them.

5They criedH2199 unto thee, and were deliveredH4422: they trustedH982 in thee, and were not confoundedH954.

6But I am a wormH8438, and no manH376; a reproachH2781 of menH120, and despisedH959 of the peopleH5971.

7All they that seeH7200 me laugh me to scornH3932: they shoot outH6358 the lipH8193, they shakeH5128 the headH7218, saying,5

8He trustedH1556 on YhwhH3068 that he would deliverH6403 him: let him deliverH5337 him, seeing he delightedH2654 in him.67

9But thou art he that tookH1518 me out of the wombH990: thou didst make me hopeH982 when I was upon my mother’sH517 breastsH7699.8

10I was castH7993 upon thee from the wombH7358: thou art my GodH410 from my mother’sH517 bellyH990.

11Be not farH7368 from me; for troubleH6869 is nearH7138; for there is none to helpH5826.9

12ManyH7227 bullsH6499 have compassedH5437 me: strongH47 bulls of BashanH1316 have beset me roundH3803.

13They gapedH6475 upon me with their mouthsH6310, as a raveningH2963 and a roaringH7580 lionH738.10

14I am poured outH8210 like waterH4325, and all my bonesH6106 are out of jointH6504: my heartH3820 is like waxH1749; it is meltedH4549 in the midstH8432 of my bowelsH4578.11

15My strengthH3581 is dried upH3001 like a potsherdH2789; and my tongueH3956 cleavethH1692 to my jawsH4455; and thou hast broughtH8239 me into the dustH6083 of deathH4194.

16For dogsH3611 have compassedH5437 me: the assemblyH5712 of the wickedH7489 have inclosedH5362 me: they piercedH738H3738 my handsH3027 and my feetH7272.

17I may tellH5608 all my bonesH6106: they lookH5027 and stareH7200 upon me.

18They partH2505 my garmentsH899 among them, and castH5307 lotsH1486 upon my vestureH3830.

19But be not thou farH7368 from me, O YhwhH3068: O my strengthH360, hasteH2363 thee to helpH5833 me.

20DeliverH5337 my soulH5315 from the swordH2719; my darlingH3173 from the powerH3027 of the dogH3611.1213

21SaveH3467 me from the lion’sH738 mouthH6310: for thou hast heardH6030 me from the hornsH7161 of the unicornsH7214.
