22:1  My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me? Why art Thou so far from helping Me, and from the words of My groaning?
22:2  O My God, I cry in the daytime, but Thou hearest not; and in the night season I am not silent.
22:3  But Thou art holy, O Thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.
22:4  Our fathers trusted in Thee; they trusted, and Thou didst deliver them.
22:5  They cried unto Thee and were delivered; they trusted in Thee and were not confounded.
22:6  But I am a worm and no man, a reproach of men and despised by the people.
22:7  All they that see Me laugh Me to scorn; they shoot out their lip, they shake their head, saying,
22:8  “He trusted in the Lord that He would deliver him; let Him deliver him, seeing He delighted in him!”
22:9  But Thou art He that took Me out of the womb; Thou didst make Me hope when I was upon My mother’s breasts.
22:10  I was cast upon Thee from the womb; Thou art My God from My mother’s belly.
22:11  Be not far from Me, for trouble is near; for there is none to help.
22:12  Many bulls have compassed Me about; strong bulls of Bashan have beset Me round.
22:13  They gaped at Me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.
22:14  I am poured out like water, and all My bones are out of joint; My heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of My body.
22:15  My strength is dried up like a potsherd, and My tongue cleaveth to My jaws; and Thou hast brought Me into the dust of death.
22:16  For dogs have surrounded Me; the assembly of the wicked have enclosed Me; they pierced My hands and My feet.
22:17  I can count all My bones; they look and stare upon Me.
22:18  They part My garments among them, and cast lots upon My vesture.
22:19  But be Thou not far from Me, O Lord; O My Strength, hasten Thee to help Me!
22:20  Deliver My soul from the sword, My only one from the power of the dog.
22:21  Save Me from the lion’s mouth; for Thou hast heard Me from the horns of the unicorns.
22:22  I will declare Thy name unto My brethren; in the midst of the congregation will I praise Thee.
22:23  Ye that fear the Lord, praise Him! All ye the seed of Jacob, glorify Him; and fear Him, all ye the seed of Israel.
22:24  For He hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath He hid His face from Him, but when He cried unto Him, He heard.
22:25  My praise shall be of Thee in the great congregation; I will pay My vows before them that fear Him.
22:26  The meek shall eat and be satisfied; they shall praise the Lord that seek Him. Your heart shall live for ever.
22:27  All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the Lord, and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before Thee.
22:28  For the kingdom is the Lord’S, and He is the governor among the nations.
22:29  All they that are fat upon the earth shall eat and worship; all they that go down to the dust shall bow before Him, for none can keep alive his own soul.
22:30  A seed shall serve Him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.
22:31  They shall come and shall declare His righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that He hath done this.
