Psalms 22:10-22
10
I was cast upon thee from the womb; Thou art my God since my mother bare me.
11
Be not far from me; for trouble is near; For there is none to help.
12
Many bulls have compassed me; Strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.
13
They gape upon me with their mouth, Asa ravening and a roaring lion.
14
I am poured out like water, And all my bones are out of joint: My heart is like wax; It is melted within me.
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.
16
For dogs have compassed me: A company of evil-doers have inclosed me; They pierced my hands and my feet.
17
I may count all my bones. They look and stare upon me;
18
They part my garments among them, And upon my vesture do they cast lots.
19
But be not thou far off, O Jehovah: O thou my succor, haste thee to help me.
20
Deliver my soul from the sword, My darling from the power of the dog.
21
Save me from the lion’s mouth; Yea, from the horns of the wild-oxen thou hast answered me.
22
I will declare thy name unto my brethren: In the midst of the assembly will I praise thee.
