Psalm 22:3-5
3
But You are holy,
Enthroned in the praises of Israel.
4
Our fathers trusted in You;
They trusted, and You delivered them.
5
They cried to You, and were delivered;
They trusted in You, and were not ashamed.
Psalm 22:6-8
6
But I am a worm, and no man;
A reproach of men, and despised by the people.
7
All those who see Me ridicule Me;
They shoot out the lip (show contempt with their mouth), they shake the head, saying,
8
“He trusted in the Lord, let Him rescue Him;
Let Him deliver Him, since He delights in Him!”
Psalm 22:9-11
9
But You are He who took Me out of the womb;
You made Me trust while on My mother’s breasts.
10
I was cast upon You from birth.
From My mother’s womb
You have been My God.
11
Be not far from Me,
For trouble is near;
For there is none to help.
Psalm 22:22-24
22
I will declare Your name to My brethren;
In the midst of the assembly I will praise You.
23
You who fear the Lord, praise Him!
All you descendants of Jacob, glorify Him,
And fear Him, all you offspring of Israel!
24
For He has not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted;
Nor has He hidden His face from Him;
But when He cried to Him, He heard.
Psalm 22:30-31
30
A posterity shall serve Him.
It will be recounted of the Lord to the next generation,
31
They will come and declare His righteousness to a people who will be born,
That He has done this.
