aMy God, my God, why have You forsaken me? 1 bFar from my deliverance are the words of my 2 cgroaning.
2O my God, I acry by day, but You do not answer; And by night, but 1I have no rest.
3Yet aYou are holy, O You who 1are enthroned upon bthe praises of Israel.
4In You our fathers atrusted; They trusted and You bdelivered them.
5To You they cried out and were delivered; aIn You they trusted and were not 1disappointed.
6But I am a aworm and not a man, A breproach of men and cdespised by the people.
7All who see me 1 asneer at me; They 2separate with the lip, they bwag the head, saying,
8" 1Commit yourself to the LORD; alet Him deliver him; Let Him rescue him, because He delights in him."
9Yet You are He who abrought me forth from the womb; You made me trust when upon my mother's breasts.
10Upon You I was cast afrom 1birth; You have been my God from my mother's womb.
11aBe not far from me, for 1trouble is near; For there is bnone to help.
12Many abulls have surrounded me; Strong bulls of bBashan have encircled me.
13They aopen wide their mouth at me, As a ravening and a roaring blion.
14I am apoured out like water, And all my bbones are out of joint; My cheart is like wax; It is melted within 1me.
15My astrength is dried up like a potsherd, And bmy tongue cleaves to my jaws; And You clay me 1in the dust of death.
16For adogs have surrounded me; 1A band of evildoers has encompassed me; 2They bpierced my hands and my feet.
17I can count all my bones. aThey look, they stare at me;
18They adivide my garments among them, And for my clothing they cast lots.
19But You, O LORD, abe not far off; O You my help, bhasten to my assistance.
20Deliver my 1soul from athe sword, My bonly life from the 2power of the dog.
21Save me from the alion's mouth; From the horns of the bwild oxen You canswer me.
22I will atell of Your name to my brethren; In the midst of the assembly I will praise You.
23aYou who fear the LORD, praise Him; All you 1descendants of Jacob, bglorify Him, And cstand in awe of Him, all you 1descendants of Israel.
24For He has anot despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; Nor has He bhidden His face from him; But cwhen he cried to Him for help, He heard.
25From You comes amy praise in the great assembly; I shall bpay my vows before those who fear Him.
26The 1afflicted will eat and abe satisfied; Those who seek Him will bpraise the LORD. Let your cheart live forever!
27All the aends of the earth will remember and turn to the LORD, And all the bfamilies of the nations will worship before 1You.
28For the akingdom is the LORD'S And He brules over the nations.
29All the 1 aprosperous of the earth will eat and worship, All those who bgo down to the dust will bow before Him, Even he who 2 ccannot keep his soul alive.
301 aPosterity will serve Him; It will be told of the Lord to bthe coming generation.
31They will come and awill declare His righteousness To a people bwho will be born, that He has performed it.
