Ps 22

FFor the Chief Musician; set to “The Doe of the Morning.” A Psalm by David. My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning? (MT 22:2; LXX 21:1; LXX 21:2; Rahlfs 21:1; Rahlfs 21:2) לַ֭מְנַצֵּחַ עַל־אַיֶּ֥לֶת הַשַּׁ֗חַר מִזְמ֥וֹר לְדָוִֽד׃ 2My God, I cry in the daytime, but you don’t answer; in the night season, and am not silent. (MT 22:3; LXX 21:3; Rahlfs 21:3) אֵלִ֣י אֵ֭לִי לָמָ֣ה עֲזַבְתָּ֑נִי רָח֥וֹק מִֽ֝ישׁוּעָתִ֗י דִּבְרֵ֥י שַׁאֲגָתִֽי׃ 3But you are holy, you who inhabit the praises of Israel. (MT 22:4; LXX 21:4; Rahlfs 21:4) אֱֽלֹהַ֗י אֶקְרָ֣א י֭וֹמָם וְלֹ֣א תַעֲנֶ֑ה וְ֝לַ֗יְלָה וְֽלֹא־דֽוּמִיָּ֥ה לִֽי׃ 4Our fathers trusted in you. They trusted, and you delivered them. (MT 22:5; LXX 21:5; Rahlfs 21:5) וְאַתָּ֥ה קָד֑וֹשׁ י֝וֹשֵׁ֗ב תְּהִלּ֥וֹת יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ 5They cried to you, and were delivered. 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 no man; a reproach of men, and despised by the people. (MT 22:7; LXX 21:7; Rahlfs 21:7) אֵלֶ֣יךָ זָעֲק֣וּ וְנִמְלָ֑טוּ בְּךָ֖ בָטְח֣וּ וְלֹא־בֽוֹשׁוּ׃ 7All those who see me mock me. They insult me with their lips. They shake their heads, saying, (MT 22:8; LXX 21:8; Rahlfs 21:8) וְאָנֹכִ֣י תוֹלַ֣עַת וְלֹא־אִ֑ישׁ חֶרְפַּ֥ת אָ֝דָ֗ם וּבְז֥וּי עָֽם׃ 8“He trusts in Yahweh. Let him deliver him. Let him rescue him, since he delights in him.” (MT 22:9; LXX 21:9; Rahlfs 21:9) כָּל־רֹ֭אַי יַלְעִ֣גוּ לִ֑י יַפְטִ֥ירוּ בְ֝שָׂפָ֗ה יָנִ֥יעוּ רֹֽאשׁ׃ 9But you brought me out of the womb. You made me trust while at my mother’s breasts. (MT 22:10; LXX 21:10; Rahlfs 21:10) גֹּ֣ל אֶל־יְהוָ֣ה יְפַלְּטֵ֑הוּ יַ֝צִּילֵ֗הוּ כִּ֘י חָ֥פֵֽץ בּֽוֹ׃ 10I was thrown on you from my mother’s womb. You are my God since my mother bore me. (MT 22:11; LXX 21:11; Rahlfs 21:11) כִּֽי־אַתָּ֣ה גֹחִ֣י מִבָּ֑טֶן מַ֝בְטִיחִ֗י עַל־שְׁדֵ֥י אִמִּֽי׃ 11Don’t be far from me, for trouble is near. For there is no one to help. (MT 22:12; LXX 21:12; Rahlfs 21:12) עָ֭לֶיךָ הָשְׁלַ֣כְתִּי מֵרָ֑חֶם מִבֶּ֥טֶן אִ֝מִּ֗י אֵ֣לִי אָֽתָּה׃ 12Many bulls have surrounded me. Strong bulls of Bashan have encircled me. (MT 22:13; LXX 21:13; Rahlfs 21:13) אַל־תִּרְחַ֣ק מִ֭מֶּנִּי כִּי־צָרָ֣ה קְרוֹבָ֑ה כִּי־אֵ֥ין עוֹזֵֽר׃ 13They open their mouths wide against me, lions tearing prey and roaring. (MT 22:14; LXX 21:14; Rahlfs 21:14) סְ֭בָבוּנִי פָּרִ֣ים רַבִּ֑ים אַבִּירֵ֖י בָשָׁ֣ן כִּתְּרֽוּנִי׃ 14I am poured out like water. All my bones are out of joint. My heart is like wax. It is melted 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. My tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth. You have brought me into 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 have surrounded me. A company of evildoers have enclosed 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 of my bones. They look and stare at 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. They cast lots for my clothing. (MT 22:19; LXX 21:19; Rahlfs 21:19) אֲסַפֵּ֥ר כָּל־עַצְמוֹתָ֑י הֵ֥מָּה יַ֝בִּ֗יטוּ יִרְאוּ־בִֽי׃ 19But don’t be far off, Yahweh. You are my help. Hurry 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 the dog. (MT 22:21; LXX 21:21; Rahlfs 21:21) וְאַתָּ֣ה יְ֭הוָה אַל־תִּרְחָ֑ק אֱ֝יָלוּתִ֗י לְעֶזְרָ֥תִי חֽוּשָׁה׃ 21Save me from the lion’s mouth! Yes, you have rescued me from the horns of the wild oxen. (MT 22:22; LXX 21:22; Rahlfs 21:22) הַצִּ֣ילָה מֵחֶ֣רֶב נַפְשִׁ֑י מִיַּד־כֶּ֝֗לֶב יְחִידָתִֽי׃ 22I will declare your name to my brothers. Among the assembly, I will praise you. (MT 22:23; LXX 21:23; Rahlfs 21:23) ה֭וֹשִׁיעֵנִי מִפִּ֣י אַרְיֵ֑ה וּמִקַּרְנֵ֖י רֵמִ֣ים עֲנִיתָֽנִי׃ 23You who fear Yahweh, praise him! All you descendants of Jacob, glorify him! Stand in awe of him, all you descendants of Israel! (MT 22:24; LXX 21:24; Rahlfs 21:24) אֲסַפְּרָ֣ה שִׁמְךָ֣ לְאֶחָ֑י בְּת֖וֹךְ קָהָ֣ל אֲהַלְלֶֽךָּ׃ 24For he has not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted, neither has he hidden his face from him; but when he cried to him, he heard. (MT 22:25; LXX 21:25; Rahlfs 21:25) יִרְאֵ֤י יְהוָ֨ה ׀ הַֽלְל֗וּהוּ כָּל־זֶ֣רַע יַעֲקֹ֣ב כַּבְּד֑וּהוּ וְג֥וּרוּ מִ֝מֶּ֗נּוּ כָּל־זֶ֥רַע יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ 25My praise of you comes in the great assembly. I will pay my vows before those who fear him. (MT 22:26; LXX 21:26; Rahlfs 21:26) כִּ֤י לֹֽא־בָזָ֨ה וְלֹ֪א שִׁקַּ֡ץ עֱנ֬וּת עָנִ֗י וְלֹא־הִסְתִּ֣יר פָּנָ֣יו מִמֶּ֑נּוּ וּֽבְשַׁוְּע֖וֹ אֵלָ֣יו שָׁמֵֽעַ׃ 26The humble shall eat and be satisfied. They shall praise Yahweh who seek after him. Let 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 shall remember and turn to Yahweh. All the relatives of the nations shall worship before you. (MT 22:28; LXX 21:28; Rahlfs 21:28) יֹאכְל֬וּ עֲנָוִ֨ים ׀ וְיִשְׂבָּ֗עוּ יְהַֽלְל֣וּ יְ֭הוָה דֹּ֣רְשָׁ֑יו יְחִ֖י לְבַבְכֶ֣ם לָעַֽד׃ 28For the kingdom is Yahweh’s. He is the ruler 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 ones of the earth shall eat and worship. All those who go down to the dust shall bow before him, even he who can’t keep his soul alive. (MT 22:30; LXX 21:30; Rahlfs 21:30) כִּ֣י לַ֭יהוָה הַמְּלוּכָ֑ה וּ֝מֹשֵׁ֗ל בַּגּוֹיִֽם׃ 30Posterity shall serve him. Future generations shall be told about the Lord. (MT 22:31; LXX 21:31; Rahlfs 21:31) אָכְל֬וּ וַיִּֽשְׁתַּחֲוּ֨וּ ׀ כָּֽל־דִּשְׁנֵי־אֶ֗רֶץ לְפָנָ֣יו יִ֭כְרְעוּ כָּל־יוֹרְדֵ֣י עָפָ֑ר וְ֝נַפְשׁ֗וֹ לֹ֣א חִיָּֽה׃ 31They shall come and shall declare his righteousness to a people that shall be born, for he has done it. (MT 22:32; LXX 21:32; Rahlfs 21:32) זֶ֥רַע יַֽעַבְדֶ֑נּוּ יְסֻפַּ֖ר לַֽאדֹנָ֣י לַדּֽוֹר׃
