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.
24. For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.
25. Of thee cometh my praise in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.
26. The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the Lord that seek after him: let your heart live for ever.
27. All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn unto the Lord: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.
