1 My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? Why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?
2 O my God, I cry in the day time, but thou hearest not;
and in the night season, and am not silent.
3 But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.
4 Our fathers trusted in thee:
they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.
5 They cried unto thee, and were delivered:
they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.
6 But I am a worm, and no man;
a reproach of men, and despised of the people.
7 All they that see me laugh me to scorn:
they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,
8 He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him:
let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.
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.
10 I was cast upon thee from the womb:
thou art my God from my mother's belly.
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 gaped upon me with their mouths, [as] a 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 in the midst of my bowels.
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:
the assembly (of the wicked) have inclosed me:
they pierced my hands and my feet.
17 I may tell all my bones:
they look and stare upon me.
18 They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.
19 But be not thou far from me, O LORD:
O my strength, 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:
for thou hast heard me from the horns (of the unicorns).
22 I will declare thy name unto my brethren:
in the midst (of the congregation) will I praise thee.
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.
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.
25 My praise shall be (of thee) in the great congregation:
I will pay my vows before them that fear him.
26 The meek shall eat and be satisfied:
they shall praise the LORD that seek him:
your heart shall live for ever.
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.
28 For the kingdom is the LORD's:
and he is the governor among the nations.
29 All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship:
all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him:
and none can keep alive his own soul.
30 A seed shall serve him;
it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.
31 They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this.
