Psalms 22:1-11

The Cry of Abandonment

Psalms 22:1-11
1
To him that excelleth upon Aiieleth Hasshahar. A Psalme of Dauid. My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me, and art so farre from mine health, and from the wordes of my roaring?
2
O my God, I crie by day, but thou hearest not, and by night, but haue no audience.
3
But thou art holy, and doest inhabite the prayses of Israel.
4
Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didest deliuer them.
5
They called vpon thee, and were deliuered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.
6
But I am a worme, and not a man: a shame of men, and the contempt of the people.
7
All they that see me, haue me in derision: they make a mowe and nod the head, saying,
8
He trusted in the Lord, let him deliuer him: let him saue him, seeing he loueth him.
9
But thou didest draw me out of ye wombe: thou gauest me hope, euen at my mothers breasts.
10
I was cast vpon thee, euen from ye wombe: thou art my God from my mothers belly.
11
Be not farre from me, because trouble is neere: for there is none to helpe me.
