Psalms 22:1-8

¹“For the leader of the music. To the tune of “The hind of the morning.” A psalm of David.” My God, my God! why hast thou forsaken me? Why so far from mine aid, and from the words of my cry?

²O my God! I cry during the day, but thou hearest not; In the night also, but I have no rest.

³And yet thou art holy, Dwelling amid the praises of Israel!

⁴Our fathers trusted in thee; They trusted, and thou didst save them.

⁵They called upon thee, and were delivered; They trusted in thee, and were not put to shame.

⁶But I am a worm, and not a man; The reproach of men, and the scorn of the people.

⁷All who see me scoff at me; They open wide the lips; they shake the head.

⁸“He trusted in the LORD, let him help him; Let him deliver him, since he delighted in him!”
