Psalms 22:13 Context
11Be not farre from me, for trouble is neere; for there is none to helpe. 12Many bulles haue compassed me: strong bulles of Bashan haue beset me round. 13They gaped vpon me with their mouthes, as a rauening and a roaring Lyon. 14I am powred out like water, and all my bones are out of ioynt: my heart is like waxe, it is melted in the middest of my bowels. 15My strength is dried vp like a potsheard: and my tongue cleaueth to my iawes; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.
