Psalms 22:13-24

¹³They gape upon me with their mouth, as a ravening and a roaring lion.

¹⁴I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is become like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.

¹⁵My strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue cleaveth to my palate; and thou hast laid me in the dust of death.

¹⁶For dogs have encompassed me; an assembly of evil-doers have surrounded me: they pierced my hands and my feet.

¹⁷I may count all my bones. They look, they stare upon me;

¹⁸They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.

¹⁹But thou, Jehovah, be not far from me; O my strength, haste thee to help me.

²⁰Deliver my soul from the sword; my only one from the power of the dog;

²¹Save me from the lion's mouth. Yea, from the horns of the buffaloes hast thou answered me.

²²I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.

²³Ye that fear Jehovah, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and revere him, all ye the seed of Israel.

²⁴For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him: but when he cried unto him, he heard.
