## Why Have You Forsaken Me?
|
|
|
|
###### 1
|
|
My God, my God, why have You forsaken me? Far from my salvation are the words of my groaning.
|
|
|
|
###### 2
|
|
O my God, I call by day, but You do not answer; And by night, but I have no rest.
|
|
|
|
###### 3
|
|
Yet You are holy, Enthroned upon the praises of Israel.
|
|
|
|
###### 4
|
|
In You our fathers trusted; They trusted and You rescued them.
|
|
|
|
###### 5
|
|
To You they cried out and were granted escape; In You they trusted and were not disappointed.
|
|
|
|
###### 6
|
|
But I am a worm and not a man, A reproach of men and despised by the people.
|
|
|
|
###### 7
|
|
All who see me mock me; They smack _their_ lip, they wag _their_ head, _saying_,
|
|
|
|
###### 8
|
|
"Commit _yourself_ to Yahweh; let Him rescue him; Let Him deliver him, because He delights in him."
|
|
|
|
###### 9
|
|
Yet You are He who brought me out of the womb; You made me trust _when_ upon my mother's breasts.
|
|
|
|
###### 10
|
|
Upon You I was cast from birth; You have been my God from my mother's womb.
|
|
|
|
###### 11
|
|
Be not far from me, for distress is near; For there is none to help.
|
|
|
|
###### 12
|
|
Many bulls have surrounded me; Strong _bulls_ of Bashan have encircled me.
|
|
|
|
###### 13
|
|
They open wide their mouth at me, _As_ a lion that tears and roars.
|
|
|
|
###### 14
|
|
I am poured out like water, And all my bones are out of joint; My heart is like wax; It is melted within me.
|
|
|
|
###### 15
|
|
My strength is dried up like a potsherd, And my tongue cleaves to my jaws; And You lay me in the dust of death.
|
|
|
|
###### 16
|
|
For dogs have surrounded me; A band of evildoers has encompassed me; They pierced my hands and my feet.
|
|
|
|
###### 17
|
|
I count all my bones. They look, they stare at me;
|
|
|
|
###### 18
|
|
They divide my garments among them, And for my clothing they cast lots.
|
|
|
|
###### 19
|
|
But You, O Yahweh, be not far off; O my Strength, hasten to my help.
|
|
|
|
###### 20
|
|
Deliver my soul from the sword, My only _life_ from the power of the dog.
|
|
|
|
###### 21
|
|
Save me from the mouth of the lion; From the horns of the wild oxen You have answered me.
|
|
|
|
###### 22
|
|
I will _surely_ recount Your name to my brothers; In the midst of the assembly I will praise You.
|
|
|
|
###### 23
|
|
You who fear Yahweh, praise Him; All you seed of Jacob, glorify Him, And stand in awe of Him, all you seed of Israel.
|
|
|
|
###### 24
|
|
For He has not despised and He has not abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; And He has not hidden His face from him; But when he cried to Him for help, He heard.
|
|
|
|
###### 25
|
|
Of You _is_ my praise in the great assembly; I shall pay my vows before those who fear Him.
|
|
|
|
###### 26
|
|
The afflicted will eat and be satisfied; Those who seek Him will praise Yahweh. May your heart live forever!
|
|
|
|
###### 27
|
|
All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to Yahweh, And all the families of the nations will worship before You.
|
|
|
|
###### 28
|
|
For the kingdom is Yahweh's And He rules over the nations.
|
|
|
|
###### 29
|
|
All the prosperous of the earth will eat and worship, All those who go down to the dust will bow before Him, Even he who cannot keep his soul alive.
|
|
|
|
###### 30
|
|
_Their_ seed will serve Him; It will be recounted about the Lord to the _coming_ generation.
|
|
|
|
###### 31
|
|
They will come and will declare His righteousness To a people who will be born, that He has done _it_.
