Psalm 22:1-11 (New International Version)
View In My BibleFor the director of music. To [the tune of] "The Doe of the Morning." A psalm of David.
1 My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?1 Why are you so far2 from saving me, so far from the words of my groaning?3 2 O my God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer,4 by night,5 and am not silent. 3 Yet you are enthroned as the Holy One;6 you are the praise7 of Israel.a 4 In you our fathers put their trust; they trusted and you delivered them.8 5 They cried to you9 and were saved; in you they trusted10 and were not disappointed.11 6 But I am a worm12 and not a man, scorned by men13 and despised14 by the people. 7 All who see me mock me;15 they hurl insults,16 shaking their heads:17 8 "He trusts in the LORD; let the LORD rescue him.18 Let him deliver him,19 since he delights20 in him." 9 Yet you brought me out of the womb;21 you made me trust22 in you even at my mother's breast. 10 From birth23 I was cast upon you; from my mother's womb you have been my God. 11 Do not be far from me,24 for trouble is near25 and there is no one to help.26Scripture quoted by permission.
