Psalm
22
1
My God, my God, why have you abandoned me? I groan in prayer, but help seems far away.
2
My God, I cry out during the day, but you do not answer, and during the night my prayers do not let up.
3
You are holy; you sit as king receiving the praises of Israel.
4
In you our ancestors trusted; they trusted in you and you rescued them.
5
To you they cried out, and they were saved; in you they trusted and they were not disappointed.
6
But I am a worm, not a man; people insult me and despise me.
7
All who see me taunt me; they mock me and shake their heads.
8
They say, "Commit yourself to the LORD! Let the LORD rescue him! Let the LORD deliver him, for he delights in him."
9
Yes, you are the one who brought me out from the womb and made me feel secure on my mother's breasts.
10
I have been dependent on you since birth; from the time I came out of my mother's womb you have been my God.
11
Do not remain far away from me, for trouble is near and I have no one to help me.
12
Many bulls surround me; powerful bulls of Bashan hem me in.
13
They open their mouths to devour me like a roaring lion that rips its prey.
14
My strength drains away like water; all my bones are dislocated; my heart is like wax; it melts away inside me.
15
The roof of my mouth is as dry as a piece of pottery; my tongue sticks to my gums. You set me in the dust of death.
16
Yes, wild dogs surround me - a gang of evil men crowd around me; like a lion they pin my hands and feet.
17
I can count all my bones; my enemies are gloating over me in triumph.
18
They are dividing up my clothes among themselves; they are rolling dice for my garments.
