YLT - Psalms - 22

22:1  To the Overseer, on `The Hind of the Morning.' --A Psalm of David. My God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken me? Far from my salvation, The words of my roaring?

22:2  My God, I call by day, and Thou answerest not, And by night, and there is no silence to me.

22:3  And Thou art holy, Sitting--the Praise of Israel.

22:4  In Thee did our fathers trust--they trusted, And Thou dost deliver them.

22:5  Unto Thee they cried, and were delivered, In Thee they trusted, and were not ashamed.

22:6  And I am a worm, and no man, A reproach of man, and despised of the people.

22:7  All beholding me do mock at me, They make free with the lip--shake the head,

22:8  `Roll unto Jehovah, He doth deliver him, He doth deliver him, for he delighted in him.'

22:9  For thou art He bringing me forth from the womb, Causing me to trust, On the breasts of my mother.

22:10  On Thee I have been cast from the womb, From the belly of my mother Thou art my God.

22:11  Be not far from me, For adversity is near, for there is no helper.

22:12  Many bulls have surrounded me, Mighty ones of Bashan have compassed me,

22:13  They have opened against me their mouth, A lion tearing and roaring.

22:14  As waters I have been poured out, And separated themselves have all my bones, My heart hath been like wax, It is melted in the midst of my bowels.

22:15  Dried up as an earthen vessel is my power, And my tongue is cleaving to my jaws.

22:16  And to the dust of death thou appointest me, For surrounded me have dogs, A company of evil doers have compassed me, Piercing my hands and my feet.

22:17  I count all my bones--they look expectingly, They look upon me,

22:18  They apportion my garments to themselves, And for my clothing they cause a lot to fall.

22:19  And Thou, O Jehovah, be not far off, O my strength, to help me haste.

22:20  Deliver from the sword my soul, From the paw of a dog mine only one.

22:21  Save me from the mouth of a lion: --And--from the horns of the high places Thou hast answered me!

22:22  I declare Thy name to my brethren, In the midst of the assembly I praise Thee.

22:23  Ye who fear Jehovah, praise ye Him, All the seed of Jacob, honour ye Him, And be afraid of Him, all ye seed of Israel.

22:24  For He hath not despised, nor abominated, The affliction of the afflicted, Nor hath He hidden His face from him, And in his crying unto Him He heareth.

22:25  Of Thee my praise is in the great assembly. My vows I complete before His fearers.

22:26  The humble do eat and are satisfied, Praise Jehovah do those seeking Him, Your heart doth live for ever.

22:27  Remember and return unto Jehovah, Do all ends of the earth, And before Thee bow themselves, Do all families of the nations,

22:28  For to Jehovah is the kingdom, And He is ruling among nations.

22:29  And the fat ones of earth have eaten, And they bow themselves, Before Him bow do all going down to dust, And he who hath not revived his soul.

22:30  A seed doth serve Him, It is declared of the Lord to the generation.

22:31  They come and declare His righteousness, To a people that is borne, that He hath made!
