22:1 |
|
22:2 |
O my God, I make my cry in the day, and you give no answer; and in the night, and have no rest.
|
22:3 |
But you are holy, O you who are seated among the praises of Israel.
|
22:4 |
Our fathers had faith in you: they had faith and you were their saviour.
|
22:5 |
They sent up their cry to you and were made free: they put their faith in you and were not put to shame.
|
22:6 |
But I am a worm and not a man; cursed by men, and looked down on by the people.
|
22:7 |
I am laughed at by all those who see me: pushing out their lips and shaking their heads they say,
|
22:8 |
He put his faith in the Lord; let the Lord be his saviour now: let the Lord be his saviour, because he had delight in him.
|
22:9 |
But it was you who took care of me from the day of my birth: you gave me faith even from my mother's breasts.
|
22:10 |
I was in your hands even before my birth; you are my God from the time when I was in my mother's body.
|
22:11 |
Be not far from me, for trouble is near; there is no one to give help.
|
22:12 |
A great herd of oxen is round me: I am shut in by the strong oxen of Bashan.
|
22:13 |
I saw their mouths wide open, like lions crying after food.
|
22:14 |
I am flowing away like water, and all my bones are out of place: my heart is like wax, it has become soft in my body.
|
22:15 |
My throat is dry like a broken vessel; my tongue is fixed to the roof of my mouth, and the dust of death is on my lips.
|
22:16 |
Dogs have come round me: I am shut in by the band of evil-doers; they made wounds in my hands and feet.
|
22:17 |
I am able to see all my bones; their looks are fixed on me:
|
22:18 |
They make a division of my robes among them, by the decision of chance they take my clothing.
|
22:19 |
Do not be far from me, O Lord: O my strength, come quickly to my help.
|
22:20 |
Make my soul safe from the sword, my life from the power of the dog.
|
22:21 |
Be my saviour from the lion's mouth; let me go free from the horns of the cruel oxen.
|
22:22 |
I will give the knowledge of your name to my brothers: I will give you praise among the people.
|
22:23 |
You who have fear of the Lord, give him praise; all you seed of Jacob, give him glory; go in fear of him, all you seed of Israel.
|
22:24 |
For he has not been unmoved by the pain of him who is troubled; or kept his face covered from him; but he has given an answer to his cry.
|
22:25 |
My praise will be of you in the great meeting: I will make my offerings before his worshippers.
|
22:26 |
The poor will have a feast of good things: those who make search for the Lord will give him praise: your heart will have life for ever.
|
22:27 |
All the ends of the earth will keep it in mind and be turned to the Lord: all the families of the nations will give him worship.
|
22:28 |
For the kingdom is the Lord's; he is the ruler among the nations.
|
22:29 |
All the fat ones of the earth will give him worship; all those who go down to the dust will make themselves low before him, even he who has not enough for the life of his soul.
|
22:30 |
A seed will be his servant; the doings of the Lord will be made clear to the generation which comes after.
|
22:31 |
They will come and make his righteousness clear to a people of the future because he has done this.
