Psalms 22
12 Ref Many bulls have compassed me; Strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.
13 Ref They gape upon me with their mouth, `As' a ravening and a roaring lion.
14 Ref I am poured out like water, And all my bones are out of joint: My heart is like wax; It is melted within me.
15 Ref 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.
16 Ref For dogs have compassed me: A company of evil-doers have inclosed me; They pierced my hands and my feet.
17 Ref I may count all my bones; They look and stare upon me.
18 Ref They part my garments among them, And upon my vesture do they cast lots.
19 Ref But be not thou far off, O Jehovah: O thou my succor, haste thee to help me.
20 Ref Deliver my soul from the sword, My darling from the power of the dog.
21 Ref Save me from the lion's mouth; Yea, from the horns of the wild-oxen thou hast answered me.
