# Chapter 22
|
||||
1 My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?
|
||||
Why are you so far away when I groan for help?
|
||||
2 Every day I call to you, my God, but you do not answer.
|
||||
Every night I lift my voice, but I find no relief.
|
||||
3 Yet you are holy,
|
||||
enthroned on the praises of Israel.
|
||||
4 Our ancestors trusted in you,
|
||||
and you rescued them.
|
||||
5 They cried out to you and were saved.
|
||||
They trusted in you and were never disgraced.
|
||||
6 But I am a worm and not a man.
|
||||
I am scorned and despised by all!
|
||||
7 Everyone who sees me mocks me.
|
||||
They sneer and shake their heads, saying,
|
||||
8 “Is this the one who relies on the Lord?
|
||||
Then let the Lord save him!
|
||||
If the Lord loves him so much,
|
||||
let the Lord rescue him!”
|
||||
9 Yet you brought me safely from my mother’s womb
|
||||
and led me to trust you at my mother’s breast.
|
||||
10 I was thrust into your arms at my birth.
|
||||
You have been my God from the moment I was born.
|
||||
11 Do not stay so far from me,
|
||||
for trouble is near,
|
||||
and no one else can help me.
|
||||
12 My enemies surround me like a herd of bulls;
|
||||
fierce bulls of Bashan have hemmed me in!
|
||||
13 Like lions they open their jaws against me,
|
||||
roaring and tearing into their prey.
|
||||
14 My life is poured out like water,
|
||||
and all my bones are out of joint.
|
||||
My heart is like wax,
|
||||
melting within me.
|
||||
15 My strength has dried up like sunbaked clay.
|
||||
My tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth.
|
||||
You have laid me in the dust and left me for dead.
|
||||
16 My enemies surround me like a pack of dogs;
|
||||
an evil gang closes in on me.
|
||||
They have pierced my hands and feet.
|
||||
17 I can count all my bones.
|
||||
My enemies stare at me and gloat.
|
||||
18 They divide my garments among themselves
|
||||
and throw dice for my clothing.
|
||||
19 O Lord, do not stay far away!
|
||||
You are my strength; come quickly to my aid!
|
||||
20 Save me from the sword;
|
||||
spare my precious life from these dogs.
|
||||
21 Snatch me from the lion’s jaws
|
||||
and from the horns of these wild oxen.
|
||||
22 I will proclaim your name to my brothers and sisters.
|
||||
I will praise you among your assembled people.
|
||||
23 Praise the Lord, all you who fear him!
|
||||
Honor him, all you descendants of Jacob!
|
||||
Show him reverence, all you descendants of Israel!
|
||||
24 For he has not ignored or belittled the suffering of the needy.
|
||||
He has not turned his back on them,
|
||||
but has listened to their cries for help.
|
||||
25 I will praise you in the great assembly.
|
||||
I will fulfill my vows in the presence of those who worship you.
|
||||
26 The poor will eat and be satisfied.
|
||||
All who seek the Lord will praise him.
|
||||
Their hearts will rejoice with everlasting joy.
|
||||
27 The whole earth will acknowledge the Lord and return to him.
|
||||
All the families of the nations will bow down before him.
|
||||
28 For royal power belongs to the Lord.
|
||||
He rules all the nations.
|
||||
29 Let the rich of the earth feast and worship.
|
||||
Bow before him, all who are mortal,
|
||||
all whose lives will end as dust.
|
||||
30 Our children will also serve him.
|
||||
Future generations will hear about the wonders of the Lord.
|
||||
31 His righteous acts will be told to those not yet born.
|
||||
They will hear about everything he has done.
