Psalms 22:1-2

1 My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from helping me, from the words of my groaning?

Psalms 22:1-2 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 22:1-2 In-Context

1 My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from helping me, from the words of my groaning?

2 O my God, I cry by day, but you do not answer; and by night, but find no rest.

3 Yet you are holy, enthroned on the praises of Israel.

4 In you our ancestors trusted; they trusted, and you delivered them.

5 To you they cried, and were saved; in you they trusted, and were not put to shame.

6 But I am a worm, and not human; scorned by others, and despised by the people.
