\c 22
|
||
\d For the chief musician; set to "The rhythm of the deer." A psalm of David.
|
||
\b
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 1 My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?
|
||
\q Why are you so far from saving me and far from the words of my anguish?
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 2 My God, I cry out in the daytime, but you do not answer,
|
||
\q and at night I am not silent!
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 3 Yet you are holy;
|
||
\q you sit as king with the praises of Israel.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 4 Our ancestors trusted in you;
|
||
\q they trusted in you, and you rescued them.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 5 They cried to you and they were rescued.
|
||
\q They trusted in you and were not disappointed.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 6 But I am a worm and not a man,
|
||
\q a disgrace to humanity and despised by the people.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 7 All those who see me taunt me;
|
||
\q they mock me; they shake their heads at me.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 8 They say, "He trusts in Yahweh;
|
||
\q let Yahweh rescue him.
|
||
\q Let him rescue him, for he delights in him."
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 9 For you brought me from the womb;
|
||
\q you made me trust you when I was on my mother’s breasts.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 10 I have been thrown on you from the womb;
|
||
\q you are my God since I was in my mother's womb!
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 11 Do not be far away from me, for trouble is near;
|
||
\q there is no one to help.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 12 Many bulls surround me;
|
||
\q strong bulls of Bashan surround me.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 13 They open their mouths wide against me
|
||
\q like a roaring lion ripping its victim.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 14 I am being poured out like water,
|
||
\q and all my bones are dislocated.
|
||
\q My heart is like wax;
|
||
\q it melts away within my inner parts.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 15 My strength has dried up like a piece of pottery;
|
||
\q my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth.
|
||
\q You have laid me in the dust of death.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 16 For dogs have surrounded me;
|
||
\q a company of evildoers has encircled me;
|
||
\q they have pierced my hands and my feet.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 17 I can count all my bones.
|
||
\q They look and stare at me.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 18 They divide my garments among themselves,
|
||
\q they cast lots for my clothes.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 19 Do not be far away, Yahweh;
|
||
\q please hurry to help me, my strength!
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 20 Rescue my soul from the sword,
|
||
\q my only life from the claws of wild dogs.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 21 Save me from the lion’s mouth;
|
||
\q rescue me from the horns of the wild oxen.
|
||
\b
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 22 I will declare your name to my brothers;
|
||
\q in the midst of the assembly I will praise you.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 23 You who fear Yahweh, praise him!
|
||
\q All you descendants of Jacob, honor him!
|
||
\q Stand in awe of him, all you descendants of Israel!
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 24 For he has not despised or abhorred the suffering of the afflicted one;
|
||
\q Yahweh has not hidden his face from him;
|
||
\q when the afflicted one cried to him, he heard.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 25 My praise will be because of you in the great assembly;
|
||
\q I will fulfill my vows before those who fear him.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 26 The oppressed will eat and be satisfied;
|
||
\q those who seek Yahweh will praise him.
|
||
\q May your hearts live forever.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 27 All the peoples of the earth will remember and turn to Yahweh;
|
||
\q all the families of the nations will bow down before you.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 28 For the kingdom is Yahweh’s;
|
||
\q he is the ruler over the nations.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 29 All the prosperous people of the earth will feast and will worship;
|
||
\q all those who are descending into the dust will bow before him,
|
||
\q those who cannot preserve their own lives.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 30 A generation to come will serve him;
|
||
\q they will tell the next generation of the Lord.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 31 They will come and tell of his righteousness;
|
||
\q they will tell to a people not yet born what he has done!
