They will come and make his righteousness clear to a people of the future because he has done this.

You who have fear of the Lord, give him praise; all you seed of Jacob, give him glory; go in fear of him, all you seed of Israel.

They sent up their cry to you and were made free: they put their faith in you and were not put to shame.

Do not be far from me, O Lord: O my strength, come quickly to my help.

A seed will be his servant; the doings of the Lord will be made clear to the generation which comes after.

O my God, I make my cry in the day, and you give no answer; and in the night, and have no rest.

For the kingdom is the Lord's; he is the ruler among the nations.

A great herd of oxen is round me: I am shut in by the strong oxen of Bashan.

Be not far from me, for trouble is near; there is no one to give help.

But you are holy, O you who are seated among the praises of Israel.

My praise will be of you in the great meeting: I will make my offerings before his worshippers.

I am flowing away like water, and all my bones are out of place: my heart is like wax, it has become soft in my body.

Make my soul safe from the sword, my life from the power of the dog.

But it was you who took care of me from the day of my birth: you gave me faith even from my mother's breasts.

I saw their mouths wide open, like lions crying after food.

Be my saviour from the lion's mouth; let me go free from the horns of the cruel oxen.

I was in your hands even before my birth; you are my God from the time when I was in my mother's body.

Dogs have come round me: I am shut in by the band of evil-doers; they made wounds in my hands and feet.

I am laughed at by all those who see me: pushing out their lips and shaking their heads they say,

The poor will have a feast of good things: those who make search for the Lord will give him praise: your heart will have life for ever.

I am able to see all my bones; their looks are fixed on me:

All the ends of the earth will keep it in mind and be turned to the Lord: all the families of the nations will give him worship.

My throat is dry like a broken vessel; my tongue is fixed to the roof of my mouth, and the dust of death is on my lips.

I will give the knowledge of your name to my brothers: I will give you praise among the people.

• To the chief music-maker on Aijeleth-hash-shahar. A Psalm. Of David. - My God, my God, why are you turned away from me? why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my crying?

But I am a worm and not a man; cursed by men, and looked down on by the people.

He put his faith in the Lord; let the Lord be his saviour now: let the Lord be his saviour, because he had delight in him.

All the fat ones of the earth will give him worship; all those who go down to the dust will make themselves low before him, even he who has not enough for the life of his soul.

Our fathers had faith in you: they had faith and you were their saviour.

They make a division of my robes among them, by the decision of chance they take my clothing.

For he has not been unmoved by the pain of him who is troubled; or kept his face covered from him; but he has given an answer to his cry.
