Psalm 22

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 For the leader. Set to "Sunrise."A psalm of David: My God! My God! Why have you abandoned me? Why so far from helping me, so far from my anguished cries?

2 My God, by day I call to you, but you don't answer; likewise at night, but I get no relief.

3 Nevertheless, you are holy, enthroned on the praises of Isra'el.

4 In you our ancestors put their trust; they trusted, and you rescued them.

5 They cried to you and escaped; they trusted in you and were not disappointed.

6 But I am a worm, not a man, scorned by everyone, despised by the people.

7 All who see me jeer at me; they sneer and shake their heads:

8 "He committed himself to ADONAI, so let him rescue him! Let him set him free if he takes such delight in him!"

9 But you are the one who took me from the womb, you made me trust when I was on my mother's breasts.

10 Since my birth I've been thrown on you; you are my God from my mother's womb.

11 Don't stay far from me, for trouble is near; and there is no one to help.

12 Many bulls surround me, wild bulls of Bashan close in on me.

13 They open their mouths wide against me, like ravening, roaring lions.

14 I am poured out like water; all my bones are out of joint; my heart has become like wax it melts inside me;

15 my mouth is as dry as a fragment of a pot, my tongue sticks to my palate; you lay me down in the dust of death.

16 Dogs are all around me, a pack of villains closes in on me like a lion [at] my hands and feet.

17 I can count every one of my bones, while they gaze at me and gloat.

18 They divide my garments among themselves; for my clothing they throw dice.

19 But you, ADONAI, don't stay far away! My strength, come quickly to help me!

20 Rescue me from the sword, Or: "They pierced my hands and feet." See Introduction, Section VIII, paragraph 6, and Section XIV, footnote 70. my life from the power of the dogs.

21 Save me from the lion's mouth! You have answered me from the wild bulls' horns.

22 I will proclaim your name to my kinsmen; right there in the assembly I will praise you:

23 "You who fear ADONAI, praise him! All descendants of Ya'akov, glorify him! All descendants of Isra'el, stand in awe of him!

24 For he has not despised or abhorred the poverty of the poor; he did not hide his face from him but listened to his cry."

25 Because of you I give praise in the great assembly; I will fulfill my vows in the sight of those who fear him.

26 The poor will eat and be satisfied; those who seek ADONAI will praise him; Your hearts will enjoy life forever.

27 All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to ADONAI; all the clans of the nations will worship in your presence.

28 For the kingdom belongs to ADONAI, and he rules the nations.

29 All who prosper on the earth will eat and worship; all who go down to the dust will kneel before him, including him who can't keep himself alive,

30 A descendant will serve him; the next generation will be told of Adonai.

31 They will come and proclaim his righteousness to a people yet unborn, that he is the one who did it.

New Living Translation NLT

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.
