1. My God, my God, why have You left me alone? Why are You so far from helping me, and from the words I cry inside myself?
|
1. To the chief Musician H5329 upon H5921 Aijeleth H365 Shahar H7837 , A Psalm H4210 of David H1732 . My God H410 , my God H410 , why H4100 hast thou forsaken H5800 me? why art thou so far H7350 from helping H4480 H3444 me, and from the words H1697 of my roaring H7581 ?
|
|
2. O my God, I cry during the day, but You do not answer. I cry during the night, but I find no rest.
|
2. O my God H430 , I cry H7121 in the daytime H3119 , but thou hearest H6030 not H3808 ; and in the night season H3915 , and am not H3808 silent H1747 .
|
|
3. Yet You are holy. The praises Israel gives You are Your throne.
|
3. But thou H859 art holy H6918 , O thou that inhabitest H3427 the praises H8416 of Israel H3478 .
|
|
4. Our fathers trusted in You, and You saved them.
|
4. Our fathers H1 trusted H982 in thee : they trusted H982 , and thou didst deliver H6403 them.

|
5. They cried H2199 unto H413 thee , and were delivered H4422 : they trusted H982 in thee , and were not H3808 confounded H954 .
|
|
6. But I am a worm and not a man. I am put to shame by men, and am hated by the people.
|
6. But I H595 am a worm H8438 , and no H3808 man H376 ; a reproach H2781 of men H120 , and despised H959 of the people H5971 .
|
|
7. All who see me make fun of me. They open their mouths and shake their heads, and say,
|
7. All H3605 they that see H7200 me laugh H3932 me to scorn : they shoot out H6362 the lip H8193 , they shake H5128 the head H7218 , saying ,
|
|
8. "He trusts in the Lord. Let the Lord help him. Let the Lord take him out of trouble, because he is happy in Him."
|
8. He trusted H1556 on H413 the LORD H3068 that he would deliver H6403 him : let him deliver H5337 him, seeing H3588 he delighted H2654 in him.
|
|
9. But You brought me out when I was born. You made me trust when I drank my mother's milk.
|
9. But H3588 thou H859 art he that took H1518 me out of the womb H4480 H990 : thou didst make me hope H982 when I was upon H5921 my mother H517 's breasts H7699 .
|
|
10. I was in Your care from birth. Since my mother gave birth to me, You have been my God.
|
10. I was cast H7993 upon H5921 thee from the womb H4480 H7358 : thou H859 art my God H410 from my mother H517 's belly H4480 H990 .
|
|
11. Do not be far from me, for trou- ble is near. And there is no one to help.

|
|
13. They open their mouths wide against me, like a loud, hungry lion.
|
13. They gaped H6475 upon H5921 me with their mouths H6310 , as a ravening H2963 and a roaring H7580 lion H738 .

|
14. I am poured out H8210 like water H4325 , and all H3605 my bones H6106 are out of joint H6504 : my heart H3820 is H1961 like wax H1749 ; it is melted H4549 in the midst H8432 of my bowels H4578 .
|
|
15. My strength is dried up like a piece of a broken clay pot. My tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth. And You lay me in the dust of death.
|
15. My strength H3581 is dried up H3001 like a potsherd H2789 ; and my tongue H3956 cleaveth H1692 to my jaws H4455 ; and thou hast brought H8239 me into the dust H6083 of death H4194 .
|
|
16. For dogs have gathered around me. A group of sinful men stand around me. They have cut through my hands and feet.
|
16. For H3588 dogs H3611 have compassed H5437 me : the assembly H5712 of the wicked H7489 have enclosed H5362 me : they pierced H738 my hands H3027 and my feet H7272 .
|
|
17. I can tell how many bones I have. The people look at me with wide eyes.

|
18. They part H2505 my garments H899 among them , and cast H5307 lots H1486 upon H5921 my vesture H3830 .

|
19. But be not H408 thou H859 far H7368 from me , O LORD H3068 : O my strength H360 , haste H2363 thee to help H5833 me.
|
|
20. Take me away from the sword. Save my life from the power of the dog.
|
20. Deliver H5337 my soul H5315 from the sword H4480 H2719 ; my darling H3173 from the power H4480 H3027 of the dog H3611 .
|
|
21. Save me from the lion's mouth, and from the horns of the wild bulls You answer me.
|
21. Save H3467 me from the lion H738 's mouth H4480 H6310 : for thou hast heard H6030 me from the horns H4480 H7161 of the unicorns H7214 .

23. Ye that fear H3373 the LORD H3068 , praise H1984 him; all H3605 ye the seed H2233 of Jacob H3290 , glorify H3513 him ; and fear H1481 H4480 him, all H3605 ye the seed H2233 of Israel H3478 .
|
|
24. For He has not turned away from the suffering of the one in pain or trouble. He has not hidden His face from him. But He has heard his cry for help.
|
24. For H3588 he hath not H3808 despised H959 nor H3808 abhorred H8262 the affliction H6039 of the afflicted H6041 ; neither H3808 hath he hid H5641 his face H6440 from H4480 him ; but when he cried H7768 unto H413 him , he heard H8085 .
|
|
25. My praise will be from You in the big meeting of worship. I will keep my promises to Him in front of those who fear Him.
|
25. My praise H8416 shall be of H4480 H854 thee in the great H7227 congregation H6951 : I will pay H7999 my vows H5088 before H5048 them that fear H3373 him.

|
27. All H3605 the ends H657 of the world H776 shall remember H2142 and turn H7725 unto H413 the LORD H3068 : and all H3605 the kindreds H4940 of the nations H1471 shall worship H7812 before H6440 thee.
|
|
28. For the holy nation is the Lord's, and He rules over the nations.
|
28. For H3588 the kingdom H4410 is the LORD H3068 's : and he is the governor H4910 among the nations H1471 .
|
|
29. All the proud ones of the earth will eat and worship. All who go down to the dust will fall to their knees before Him, even he who cannot keep his soul alive.
|
29. All H3605 they that be fat H1879 upon earth H776 shall eat H398 and worship H7812 : all H3605 they that go down H3381 to the dust H6083 shall bow H3766 before H6440 him : and none H3808 can keep alive H2421 his own soul H5315 .
|
