CHAP. XXII.
1 Dauid complaineth in great discouragement. 9 Hee prayeth in great distresse. 23 Hee praiseth God.
1 [To the chiefe Musician vpon Aijeleth Shahar. A Psalme of Dauid.] My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken mee? Why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?1
2 O my God, I crie in the day time, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.2
3 But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel!
4 Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliuer them.
5 They cryed vnto thee, and were deliuered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.
6 But I am a worme, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.
7 All they that see me, laugh me to scorne: they shoote out the lippe, they shake the head, saying,7
8 He trusted on the Lord, that he would deliuer him: let him deliuer him, seeing he delighted in him.8
9 But thou art hee that tooke mee out of the wombe; thou didst make me hope, when I was vpon my mothers breasts.9
10 I was cast vpon thee from the wombe: thou art my God from my mothers belly.
11 Be not farre from me, for trouble is neere; for there is none to helpe.11
12 Many bulles haue compassed me: strong bulles of Bashan haue beset me round.
13 They gaped vpon me with their mouthes, as a rauening and a roaring Lyon.13
14 I 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.14
16 For dogges haue compassed me: the assembly of the wicked haue inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feete.16
17 I may tell all my bones: they looke and stare vpon me.
18 They part my garments among them, and cast lots vpon my vesture.
19 But be not thou farre from mee, O Lord; O my strength, hast thee to helpe me.
20 Deliuer my soule from the sword: my darling from the power of the dogge.20
21 Saue me from the lyons mouth: for thou hast heard me from the hornes of the vnicornes.
22 I will declare thy name vnto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.22
27 All the ends of the world shall remember, and turne vnto the Lord: and all the kinreds of the nations shall worship before thee.27
28 For the kingdome is the Lords: and he is the gouernour among the nations.
30 A seed shall serue him; it shalbe accounted to the Lord for a generation.
