021:005 His glory is great in your salvation. You lay honor and
majesty on him.
021:006 For you make him most blessed forever. You make him glad
with joy in your presence.
021:007 For the king trusts in Yahweh. Through the loving kindness
of the Most High, he shall not be moved.
021:008 Your hand will find out all of your enemies. Your right hand
will find out those who hate you.
021:009 You will make them as a fiery furnace in the time of your anger.
Yahweh will swallow them up in his wrath. The fire
shall devour them.
021:010 You will destroy their descendants from the earth, their posterity
from among the children of men.
021:011 For they intended evil against you. They plotted evil against
you which cannot succeed.
021:012 For you will make them turn their back, when you aim drawn
bows at their face.
021:013 Be exalted, Yahweh, in your strength, so we will sing and
praise your power.
022:001 <<For 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?
022:002 My God, I cry in the daytime, but you don't answer;
in the night season, and am not silent.
022:003 But you are holy, you who inhabit the praises of Israel.
022:004 Our fathers trusted in you. They trusted, and you delivered them.
022:005 They cried to you, and were delivered. They trusted in you,
and were not disappointed.
022:006 But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised
by the people.
022:007 All those who see me mock me. They insult me with their lips.
They shake their heads, saying,
022:008 "He trusts in Yahweh; let him deliver him. Let him rescue him,
since he delights in him."
022:009 But you brought me out of the womb. You made me trust at
my mother's breasts.
022:010 I was thrown on you from my mother's womb. You are my God
since my mother bore me.
022:011 Don't be far from me, for trouble is near. For there is
none to help.
022:012 Many bulls have surrounded me. Strong bulls of Bashan
have encircled me.
022:013 They open their mouths wide against me, lions tearing
prey and roaring.
022:014 I am poured out like water. All my bones are out of joint.
My heart is like wax; it is melted within me.
022:015 My 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.
022:016 For dogs have surrounded me. A company of evil-doers have
enclosed me. Like a lion, they pin my hands and feet.{or,
They have pierced my hands and feet. (DSS)}
022:017 I can count all of my bones. They look and stare at me.
022:018 They divide my garments among them. They cast lots for my clothing.
