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 wombYou have been My God.
11. Be not far from Me,For trouble is near;For there is none to help.
12. Many bulls have surrounded Me;Strong bulls of Bashan have encircled Me.
13. They gape at Me with their mouths,Like a raging and roaring lion.
14. I am poured out like water,And all My bones are out of joint;My heart is like wax;It has melted within Me.
15. My strength is dried up like a potsherd,And My tongue clings to My jaws;You have brought Me to the dust of death.
16. For dogs have surrounded Me;The congregation of the wicked has enclosed Me.They pierced My hands and My feet;
17. I can count all My bones.They look and stare at Me.
18. They divide My garments among them,And for My clothing they cast lots.
19. But You, O Lord, do not be far from Me;O My Strength, hasten to help Me!
20. Deliver Me from the sword,My precious life from the power of the dog.
