Psalms 22:10-23 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

10. I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother's belly.

11. Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.

12. Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.

13. They gape upon me with their mouth, as a ravening and a 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 in the midst of my bowels.

15. My Strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.

16. For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of evil-doers have enclosed me; they pierced my hands and my feet.

17. I may tell all my bones; they look and stare upon me:

18. They part my garments among them, and upon my vesture do they cast lots.

19. But be not thou far off, O Lord: O thou my succour, haste thee to help me.

20. Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog;

21. Save me from the lion's mouth; yea, from the horns of the wild-oxen thou hast answered me.

22. I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.

23. Ye that fear the Lord, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and stand in awe of him, all ye the seed of Israel.
