Old Testament

New Testament

Psalm 22:13-20 English Standard Version (ESV)

13. they open wide their mouths at me,like a ravening and roaring lion.

14. I am poured out like water,and all my bones are out of joint;my heart is like wax;it is melted within my breast;

15. my strength is dried up like a potsherd,and my tongue sticks to my jaws;you lay me in the dust of death.

16. For dogs encompass me;a company of evildoers encircles me;they have pierced my hands and feet—

17. I can count all my bones—they stare and gloat over me;

18. they divide my garments among them,and for my clothing they cast lots.

19. But you, O Lord, do not be far off!O you my help, come quickly to my aid!

20. Deliver my soul from the sword,my precious life from the power of the dog!
