Psalms 22:4-8 in English

⁴ Our fathers trusted in thee: They trusted, and thou didst deliver them.

⁵ They cried unto thee, and were delivered: They trusted in thee, and were not put to shame.

⁶ But I am a worm, and no man; A reproach of men, and despised of the people.

⁷ All they that see me laugh me to scorn: They shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,

⁸ Commit thyself unto Jehovah; let him deliver him: Let him rescue him, seeing he delighteth in him.

⁴ Yea, even if I should walk in the midst of the shadow of death, I will not be afraid of evils: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff, these have comforted me.

⁵ Thou hast prepared a table before me in presence of them that afflict me: thou hast thoroughly anointed my head with oil; and thy cup cheers me like the best wine.

⁶ Thy mercy also shall follow me all the days of my life: and my dwelling shall be in the house of the Lord for a very long time.
