Psalm 22 (Complete Jewish Bible)

  • View In My Bible
1 For the leader. Set to "Sunrise."A psalm of David: My God! My God! Why have you abandoned me? Why so far from helping me, so far from my anguished cries? 2 My God, by day I call to you, but you don't answer; likewise at night, but I get no relief. 3 Nevertheless, you are holy, enthroned on the praises of Isra'el. 4 In you our ancestors put their trust; they trusted, and you rescued them. 5 They cried to you and escaped; they trusted in you and were not disappointed. 6 But I am a worm, not a man, scorned by everyone, despised by the people. 7 All who see me jeer at me; they sneer and shake their heads: 8 "He committed himself to ADONAI, so let him rescue him! Let him set him free if he takes such delight in him!" 9 But you are the one who took me from the womb, you made me trust when I was on my mother's breasts. 10 Since my birth I've been thrown on you; you are my God from my mother's womb. 11 Don't stay far from me, for trouble is near; and there is no one to help. 12 Many bulls surround me, wild bulls of Bashan close in on me. 13 They open their mouths wide against me, like ravening, roaring lions. 14 I am poured out like water; all my bones are out of joint; my heart has become like wax it melts inside me; 15 my mouth is as dry as a fragment of a pot, my tongue sticks to my palate; you lay me down in the dust of death. 16 Dogs are all around me, a pack of villains closes in on me like a lion [at] my hands and feet. 17 I can count every one of my bones, while they gaze at me and gloat. 18 They divide my garments among themselves; for my clothing they throw dice. 19 But you, ADONAI, don't stay far away! My strength, come quickly to help me! 20 Rescue me from the sword, Or: "They pierced my hands and feet." See Introduction, Section VIII, paragraph 6, and Section XIV, footnote 70. my life from the power of the dogs. 21 Save me from the lion's mouth! You have answered me from the wild bulls' horns. 22 I will proclaim your name to my kinsmen; right there in the assembly I will praise you: 23 "You who fear ADONAI, praise him! All descendants of Ya'akov, glorify him! All descendants of Isra'el, stand in awe of him! 24 For he has not despised or abhorred the poverty of the poor; he did not hide his face from him but listened to his cry." 25 Because of you I give praise in the great assembly; I will fulfill my vows in the sight of those who fear him. 26 The poor will eat and be satisfied; those who seek ADONAI will praise him; Your hearts will enjoy life forever. 27 All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to ADONAI; all the clans of the nations will worship in your presence. 28 For the kingdom belongs to ADONAI, and he rules the nations. 29 All who prosper on the earth will eat and worship; all who go down to the dust will kneel before him, including him who can't keep himself alive, 30 A descendant will serve him; the next generation will be told of Adonai. 31 They will come and proclaim his righteousness to a people yet unborn, that he is the one who did it.

So What Is a Christian to Do?

Image
Cover of In His Steps Saturday, 17 July 2010 A letter to the One who has the answer to life that began at the cross. Dear Lord Jesus , Hello, my dearest love. I’m writing you this letter as I am quite puzzled and often discourage of the direction your people are taking. Nowadays I find many Christians doing radical things and some things we believe in are being taken away and on another hand Christians are being undermined and accused of wrong doing in today’s society. You name it we seem to be in the middle of it, even the center of ridicule. I’ve thought many times and said, “Lord what if I say this or that would you approve? If I speak out against sin I will be scorned. You said there would be scoffers in the last days ( 2 Peter 3:3-4; Jude 17-18). That’s not what I’m afraid of. I’m not afraid of what man will do to me. I’m trusting in you that what you have promised in your Word. I know I’m following my heart...
