      | ¶ | [[To the chief Musician upon Aijeleth Shahar, A Psalm of David.]] My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? [why art thou so] far from helping me, [and from] the words of my roaring? | |
 | O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent. | ||
| But thou [art] holy, [O thou] that inhabitest the praises of Israel. | ||
 | Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them. | ||
| They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded. | ||
| But I [am] a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people. | ||
| All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, [saying], | ||
| He trusted on the LORD [that] he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him. | ||
| But thou [art] he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope [when I was] upon my mother's breasts. | ||
 | I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou [art] my God from my mother's belly. | ||
| Be not far from me; for trouble [is] near; for [there is] none to help. | ||
| Many bulls have compassed me: strong [bulls] of Bashan have beset me round. | ||
| They gaped upon me [with] their mouths, [as] a ravening and a roaring lion. | ||
| I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels. | ||
| My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death. | ||
| For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet. | ||
| I may tell all my bones: they look [and] stare upon me. | ||
| They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture. | ||
| But be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste thee to help me. | ||
| Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog. | ||
| Save me from the lion's mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns. | ||
| I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee. | ||
 | Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel. | ||
| For 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. | ||
| My praise [shall be] of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him. | ||
| The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that seek him: your heart shall live for ever. | ||
| All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee. | ||
| For the kingdom [is] the LORD'S: and he [is] the governor among the nations. | ||
| All [they that be] fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul. | ||
| A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation. | ||
| They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done [this]. |
