Ps 22

FFor the choirmaster. To the tune of “The Doe of the Dawn.” A Psalm of David. My God, my God, why have You forsaken me? Why are You so far from saving me, so far from my words of groaning? (MT 22:2; LXX 21:1; LXX 21:2; Rahlfs 21:1; Rahlfs 21:2) לַ֭מְנַצֵּחַ עַל־אַיֶּ֥לֶת הַשַּׁ֗חַר מִזְמ֥וֹר לְדָוִֽד׃ 2I cry out by day, O my God, but You do not answer, and by night, but I have no rest. (MT 22:3; LXX 21:3; Rahlfs 21:3) אֵלִ֣י אֵ֭לִי לָמָ֣ה עֲזַבְתָּ֑נִי רָח֥וֹק מִֽ֝ישׁוּעָתִ֗י דִּבְרֵ֥י שַׁאֲגָתִֽי׃ 3Yet You are holy, enthroned on the praises of Israel. (MT 22:4; LXX 21:4; Rahlfs 21:4) אֱֽלֹהַ֗י אֶקְרָ֣א י֭וֹמָם וְלֹ֣א תַעֲנֶ֑ה וְ֝לַ֗יְלָה וְֽלֹא־דֽוּמִיָּ֥ה לִֽי׃ 4In You our fathers trusted; they trusted and You delivered them. (MT 22:5; LXX 21:5; Rahlfs 21:5) וְאַתָּ֥ה קָד֑וֹשׁ י֝וֹשֵׁ֗ב תְּהִלּ֥וֹת יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ 5They cried out to You and were set free; they trusted in You and were not disappointed. (MT 22:6; LXX 21:6; Rahlfs 21:6) בְּ֭ךָ בָּטְח֣וּ אֲבֹתֵ֑ינוּ בָּ֝טְח֗וּ וַֽתְּפַלְּטֵֽמוֹ׃ 6But I am a worm and not a man, scorned by men and despised by the people. (MT 22:7; LXX 21:7; Rahlfs 21:7) אֵלֶ֣יךָ זָעֲק֣וּ וְנִמְלָ֑טוּ בְּךָ֖ בָטְח֣וּ וְלֹא־בֽוֹשׁוּ׃ 7All who see me mock me; they sneer and shake their heads: (MT 22:8; LXX 21:8; Rahlfs 21:8) וְאָנֹכִ֣י תוֹלַ֣עַת וְלֹא־אִ֑ישׁ חֶרְפַּ֥ת אָ֝דָ֗ם וּבְז֥וּי עָֽם׃ 8“He trusts in the Lord, let the Lord deliver him; let the Lord rescue him, since He delights in him.” (MT 22:9; LXX 21:9; Rahlfs 21:9) כָּל־רֹ֭אַי יַלְעִ֣גוּ לִ֑י יַפְטִ֥ירוּ בְ֝שָׂפָ֗ה יָנִ֥יעוּ רֹֽאשׁ׃ 9Yet You brought me forth from the womb; You made me secure at my mother’s breast. (MT 22:10; LXX 21:10; Rahlfs 21:10) גֹּ֣ל אֶל־יְהוָ֣ה יְפַלְּטֵ֑הוּ יַ֝צִּילֵ֗הוּ כִּ֘י חָ֥פֵֽץ בּֽוֹ׃ 10From birth I was cast upon You; from my mother’s womb You have been my God. (MT 22:11; LXX 21:11; Rahlfs 21:11) כִּֽי־אַתָּ֣ה גֹחִ֣י מִבָּ֑טֶן מַ֝בְטִיחִ֗י עַל־שְׁדֵ֥י אִמִּֽי׃ 11Be not far from me, for trouble is near and there is no one to help. (MT 22:12; LXX 21:12; Rahlfs 21:12) עָ֭לֶיךָ הָשְׁלַ֣כְתִּי מֵרָ֑חֶם מִבֶּ֥טֶן אִ֝מִּ֗י אֵ֣לִי אָֽתָּה׃ 12Many bulls surround me; strong bulls of Bashan encircle me. (MT 22:13; LXX 21:13; Rahlfs 21:13) אַל־תִּרְחַ֣ק מִ֭מֶּנִּי כִּי־צָרָ֣ה קְרוֹבָ֑ה כִּי־אֵ֥ין עוֹזֵֽר׃ 13They open their jaws against me like lions that roar and maul. (MT 22:14; LXX 21:14; Rahlfs 21:14) סְ֭בָבוּנִי פָּרִ֣ים רַבִּ֑ים אַבִּירֵ֖י בָשָׁ֣ן כִּתְּרֽוּנִי׃ 14I am poured out like water, and all my bones are disjointed. My heart is like wax; it melts away within me. (MT 22:15; LXX 21:15; Rahlfs 21:15) פָּצ֣וּ עָלַ֣י פִּיהֶ֑ם אַ֝רְיֵ֗ה טֹרֵ֥ף וְשֹׁאֵֽג׃ 15My strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth. You lay me in the dust of death. (MT 22:16; LXX 21:16; Rahlfs 21:16) כַּמַּ֥יִם נִשְׁפַּכְתִּי֮ וְהִתְפָּֽרְד֗וּ כָּֽל־עַצְמ֫וֹתָ֥י הָיָ֣ה לִ֭בִּי כַּדּוֹנָ֑ג נָ֝מֵ֗ס בְּת֣וֹךְ מֵעָֽי׃ 16For dogs surround me; a band of evil men encircles me; they have pierced my hands and feet. (MT 22:17; LXX 21:17; Rahlfs 21:17) יָ֘בֵ֤שׁ כַּחֶ֨רֶשׂ ׀ כֹּחִ֗י וּ֭לְשׁוֹנִי מֻדְבָּ֣ק מַלְקוֹחָ֑י וְֽלַעֲפַר־מָ֥וֶת תִּשְׁפְּתֵֽנִי׃ 17I can count all my bones; they stare and gloat over me. (MT 22:18; LXX 21:18; Rahlfs 21:18) כִּ֥י סְבָב֗וּנִי כְּלָ֫בִ֥ים עֲדַ֣ת מְ֭רֵעִים הִקִּיפ֑וּנִי כָּ֝אֲרִ֗י יָדַ֥י וְרַגְלָֽי׃ 18They divide my garments among them and cast lots for my clothing. (MT 22:19; LXX 21:19; Rahlfs 21:19) אֲסַפֵּ֥ר כָּל־עַצְמוֹתָ֑י הֵ֥מָּה יַ֝בִּ֗יטוּ יִרְאוּ־בִֽי׃ 19But You, O Lord, be not far off; O my Strength, come quickly to help me. (MT 22:20; LXX 21:20; Rahlfs 21:20) יְחַלְּק֣וּ בְגָדַ֣י לָהֶ֑ם וְעַל־לְ֝בוּשִׁ֗י יַפִּ֥ילוּ גוֹרָֽל׃ 20Deliver my soul from the sword, my precious life from the power of wild dogs. (MT 22:21; LXX 21:21; Rahlfs 21:21) וְאַתָּ֣ה יְ֭הוָה אַל־תִּרְחָ֑ק אֱ֝יָלוּתִ֗י לְעֶזְרָ֥תִי חֽוּשָׁה׃ 21Save me from the mouth of the lion; at the horns of the wild oxen You have answered me! (MT 22:22; LXX 21:22; Rahlfs 21:22) הַצִּ֣ילָה מֵחֶ֣רֶב נַפְשִׁ֑י מִיַּד־כֶּ֝֗לֶב יְחִידָתִֽי׃ 22I will proclaim Your name to my brothers; I will praise You in the assembly. (MT 22:23; LXX 21:23; Rahlfs 21:23) ה֭וֹשִׁיעֵנִי מִפִּ֣י אַרְיֵ֑ה וּמִקַּרְנֵ֖י רֵמִ֣ים עֲנִיתָֽנִי׃ 23You who fear the Lord, praise Him! All descendants of Jacob, honor Him! All offspring of Israel, revere Him! (MT 22:24; LXX 21:24; Rahlfs 21:24) אֲסַפְּרָ֣ה שִׁמְךָ֣ לְאֶחָ֑י בְּת֖וֹךְ קָהָ֣ל אֲהַלְלֶֽךָּ׃ 24For He has not despised or detested the torment of the afflicted. He has not hidden His face from him, but has attended to his cry for help. (MT 22:25; LXX 21:25; Rahlfs 21:25) יִרְאֵ֤י יְהוָ֨ה ׀ הַֽלְל֗וּהוּ כָּל־זֶ֣רַע יַעֲקֹ֣ב כַּבְּד֑וּהוּ וְג֥וּרוּ מִ֝מֶּ֗נּוּ כָּל־זֶ֥רַע יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ 25My praise for You resounds in the great assembly; I will fulfill my vows before those who fear You. (MT 22:26; LXX 21:26; Rahlfs 21:26) כִּ֤י לֹֽא־בָזָ֨ה וְלֹ֪א שִׁקַּ֡ץ עֱנ֬וּת עָנִ֗י וְלֹא־הִסְתִּ֣יר פָּנָ֣יו מִמֶּ֑נּוּ וּֽבְשַׁוְּע֖וֹ אֵלָ֣יו שָׁמֵֽעַ׃ 26The poor will eat and be satisfied; those who seek the Lord will praise Him. May your hearts live forever! (MT 22:27; LXX 21:27; Rahlfs 21:27) מֵ֥אִתְּךָ֗ תְֽהִלָּ֫תִ֥י בְּקָהָ֥ל רָ֑ב נְדָרַ֥י אֲ֝שַׁלֵּ֗ם נֶ֣גֶד יְרֵאָֽיו׃ 27All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to the Lord. All the families of the nations will bow down before Him. (MT 22:28; LXX 21:28; Rahlfs 21:28) יֹאכְל֬וּ עֲנָוִ֨ים ׀ וְיִשְׂבָּ֗עוּ יְהַֽלְל֣וּ יְ֭הוָה דֹּ֣רְשָׁ֑יו יְחִ֖י לְבַבְכֶ֣ם לָעַֽד׃ 28For dominion belongs to the Lord and He rules over the nations. (MT 22:29; LXX 21:29; Rahlfs 21:29) יִזְכְּר֤וּ ׀ וְיָשֻׁ֣בוּ אֶל־יְ֭הוָה כָּל־אַפְסֵי־אָ֑רֶץ וְיִֽשְׁתַּחֲו֥וּ לְ֝פָנֶ֗יךָ כָּֽל־מִשְׁפְּח֥וֹת גּוֹיִֽם׃ 29All the rich of the earth will feast and worship; all who go down to the dust will kneel before Him—even those unable to preserve their lives. (MT 22:30; LXX 21:30; Rahlfs 21:30) כִּ֣י לַ֭יהוָה הַמְּלוּכָ֑ה וּ֝מֹשֵׁ֗ל בַּגּוֹיִֽם׃ 30Posterity will serve Him; they will declare the Lord to a new generation. (MT 22:31; LXX 21:31; Rahlfs 21:31) אָכְל֬וּ וַיִּֽשְׁתַּחֲוּ֨וּ ׀ כָּֽל־דִּשְׁנֵי־אֶ֗רֶץ לְפָנָ֣יו יִ֭כְרְעוּ כָּל־יוֹרְדֵ֣י עָפָ֑ר וְ֝נַפְשׁ֗וֹ לֹ֣א חִיָּֽה׃ 31They will come and proclaim His righteousness to a people yet unborn—all that He has done. (MT 22:32; LXX 21:32; Rahlfs 21:32) זֶ֥רַע יַֽעַבְדֶ֑נּוּ יְסֻפַּ֖ר לַֽאדֹנָ֣י לַדּֽוֹר׃
