Psalms 22:11-21

Brenton(i) 11 (21:11) Stand not aloof from me; for affliction is near; for there is no helper. 12 (21:12) Many bullocks have compassed me: fat bulls have beset me round. 13 (21:13) They have opened their mouth against me, as a ravening and roaring lion. 14 (21:14) I am poured out like water, and all my bones are loosened: my heart in the midst of my belly is become like melting wax. 15 (21:15) My strength is dried up, like a potsherd; and my tongue is glued to my throat; and thou hast brought me down to the dust of death. 16 (21:16) For many dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked doers has beset me round: they pierced my hands and my feet. 17 (21:17) They counted all my bones; and they observed and looked upon me. 18 (21:18) They parted my garments among themselves, and cast lots upon my raiment. 19 (21:19) But thou, O Lord, remove not my help afar off: be ready for mine aid. 20 (21:20) Deliver my soul from the sword; my only-begotten one from the power of the dog. 21 (21:21) Save me from the lion's mouth; and regard my lowliness from the horns of the unicorns.
