Psalms 22:1-7

MSG

NIV

1 God, God . . . my God! Why did you dump me miles from nowhere?
1 My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from saving me, so far from my cries of anguish?
2 Doubled up with pain, I call to God all the day long. No answer. Nothing. I keep at it all night, tossing and turning.
2 My God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer, by night, but I find no rest.
3 And you! Are you indifferent, above it all, leaning back on the cushions of Israel's praise?
3 Yet you are enthroned as the Holy One; you are the one Israel praises.
4 We know you were there for our parents:
4 In you our ancestors put their trust; they trusted and you delivered them.
5 they cried for your help and you gave it; they trusted and lived a good life.
5 To you they cried out and were saved; in you they trusted and were not put to shame.
6 And here I am, a nothing - an earthworm, something to step on, to squash.
6 But I am a worm and not a man, scorned by everyone, despised by the people.
7 Everyone pokes fun at me; they make faces at me, they shake their heads:
7 All who see me mock me; they hurl insults, shaking their heads.
