Psalm 22
New American Standard Bible

A Cry of Anguish and a Song of Praise.

For the music director; upon [a]Aijeleth Hashshahar. A Psalm of David.

22 (A)My God, my God, why have You forsaken me?
(B)Far from my [b]help are the words of my [c](C)groaning.
2 My God, I (D)cry out by day, but You do not answer;
And by night, but [d]I have no rest.
3 Yet (E)You are holy,
You who [e]are enthroned upon (F)the praises of Israel.
4 In You our fathers (G)trusted;
They trusted and You (H)rescued them.
5 To You they cried out and they fled to safety;
(I)In You they trusted and were not [f]disappointed.

6 But I am a (J)worm and not a person,
A (K)disgrace of mankind and (L)despised by the people.
7 All who see me (M)deride me;
They [g]sneer, they (N)shake their heads, saying,
8 “[h]Turn [i]him over to the Lord; (O)let Him save him;
Let Him rescue him, because He delights in him.”

9 Yet You are He who (P)brought me forth from the womb;
You made me trust when upon my mother’s breasts.
10 I was cast upon You (Q)from [j]birth;
You have been my God from my mother’s womb.

11 (R)Do not be far from me, for [k]trouble is near;
For there is (S)no one to help.
12 Many (T)bulls have surrounded me;
Strong bulls of (U)Bashan have encircled me.
13 They (V)open their mouths wide at me,
As a ravening and roaring (W)lion.
14 I am (X)poured out like water,
And all my (Y)bones are out of joint;
My (Z)heart is like wax;
It is melted within [l]me.
15 My (AA)strength is dried up like a piece of pottery,
And (AB)my tongue clings to my jaws;
And You (AC)lay me [m]in the dust of death.
16 For (AD)dogs have surrounded me;
[n]A band of evildoers has encompassed me;
[o]They (AE)pierced my hands and my feet.
17 I can count all my bones.
(AF)They look, they stare at me;
18 They (AG)divide my garments among them,
And they cast lots for my clothing.

19 But You, Lord, (AH)do not be far away;
You who are my help, (AI)hurry to my assistance.
20 Save my [p]soul from (AJ)the sword,
My (AK)only life from the [q]power of the dog.
21 Save me from the (AL)lion’s mouth;
From the horns of the (AM)wild oxen You (AN)answer me.

22 I will (AO)proclaim Your name to my brothers;
In the midst of the assembly I will praise You.
23 (AP)You who fear the Lord, praise Him;
All you [r]descendants of Jacob, (AQ)glorify Him,
And (AR)stand in awe of Him, all you [s]descendants of Israel.
24 For He has (AS)not despised nor scorned the suffering of the afflicted;
Nor has He (AT)hidden His face from him;
But (AU)when he cried to Him for help, He heard.

25 From You comes (AV)my praise in the great assembly;
I shall (AW)pay my vows before those who fear Him.
26 The [t]afflicted will eat and (AX)be satisfied;
Those who seek Him will (AY)praise the Lord.
May your (AZ)heart live forever!
27 All the (BA)ends of the earth will remember and turn to the Lord,
And all the (BB)families of the nations will worship before [u]You.
28 For the (BC)kingdom is the Lord’s
And He (BD)rules over the nations.
29 All the [v](BE)prosperous of the earth will eat and worship,
All those who (BF)go down to the dust will kneel before Him,
Even he who [w](BG)cannot keep his soul alive.
30 A [x](BH)posterity will serve Him;
It will be told of the Lord to (BI)the coming generation.
31 They will come and (BJ)will declare His righteousness
To a people (BK)who will be born, that He has performed it.

Psalm 22
New International Version

Psalm 22[a]

For the director of music. To the tune of “The Doe of the Morning.” A psalm of David.

1 My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?(A)
    Why are you so far(B) from saving me,
    so far from my cries of anguish?(C)
2 My God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer,(D)
    by night,(E) but I find no rest.[b]

3 Yet you are enthroned as the Holy One;(F)
    you are the one Israel praises.[c](G)
4 In you our ancestors put their trust;
    they trusted and you delivered them.(H)
5 To you they cried out(I) and were saved;
    in you they trusted(J) and were not put to shame.(K)

6 But I am a worm(L) and not a man,
    scorned by everyone,(M) despised(N) by the people.
7 All who see me mock me;(O)
    they hurl insults,(P) shaking their heads.(Q)
8 “He trusts in the Lord,” they say,
    “let the Lord rescue him.(R)
Let him deliver him,(S)
    since he delights(T) in him.”

9 Yet you brought me out of the womb;(U)
    you made me trust(V) in you, even at my mother’s breast.
10 From birth(W) I was cast on you;
    from my mother’s womb you have been my God.

11 Do not be far from me,(X)
    for trouble is near(Y)
    and there is no one to help.(Z)

12 Many bulls(AA) surround me;(AB)
    strong bulls of Bashan(AC) encircle me.
13 Roaring lions(AD) that tear their prey(AE)
    open their mouths wide(AF) against me.
14 I am poured out like water,
    and all my bones are out of joint.(AG)
My heart has turned to wax;(AH)
    it has melted(AI) within me.
15 My mouth[d] is dried up like a potsherd,(AJ)
    and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth;(AK)
    you lay me in the dust(AL) of death.

16 Dogs(AM) surround me,
    a pack of villains encircles me;
    they pierce[e](AN) my hands and my feet.
17 All my bones are on display;
    people stare(AO) and gloat over me.(AP)
18 They divide my clothes among them
    and cast lots(AQ) for my garment.(AR)

19 But you, Lord, do not be far from me.(AS)
    You are my strength;(AT) come quickly(AU) to help me.(AV)
20 Deliver me from the sword,(AW)
    my precious life(AX) from the power of the dogs.(AY)
21 Rescue me from the mouth of the lions;(AZ)
    save me from the horns of the wild oxen.(BA)

22 I will declare your name to my people;
    in the assembly(BB) I will praise you.(BC)
23 You who fear the Lord, praise him!(BD)
    All you descendants of Jacob, honor him!(BE)
    Revere him,(BF) all you descendants of Israel!
24 For he has not despised(BG) or scorned
    the suffering of the afflicted one;(BH)
he has not hidden his face(BI) from him
    but has listened to his cry for help.(BJ)

25 From you comes the theme of my praise in the great assembly;(BK)
    before those who fear you[f] I will fulfill my vows.(BL)
26 The poor will eat(BM) and be satisfied;
    those who seek the Lord will praise him—(BN)
    may your hearts live forever!

27 All the ends of the earth(BO)
    will remember and turn to the Lord,
and all the families of the nations
    will bow down before him,(BP)
28 for dominion belongs to the Lord(BQ)
    and he rules over the nations.

29 All the rich(BR) of the earth will feast and worship;(BS)
    all who go down to the dust(BT) will kneel before him—
    those who cannot keep themselves alive.(BU)
30 Posterity(BV) will serve him;
    future generations(BW) will be told about the Lord.
31 They will proclaim his righteousness,(BX)
    declaring to a people yet unborn:(BY)
    He has done it!(BZ)

New American Standard Bible

The Exalted Servant

13 Behold, My (A)Servant will prosper,
He will be high and lifted up and [a]greatly (B)exalted.
14 Just as many were appalled at you, My people,
So His (C)appearance was marred beyond that of a man,
And His form beyond the sons of mankind.
15 So [b]He will (D)sprinkle many nations,
Kings will (E)shut their mouths on account of Him;
For (F)what they had not been told, they will see,
And what they had not heard, they will understand.

The Suffering Servant

53 (G)Who has believed our report?
And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
2 For He grew up before Him like a (H)tender [c]shoot,
And like a root out of dry ground;
He has (I)no stately form or majesty
That we would look at Him,
Nor an appearance that we would take pleasure in Him.
3 He was (J)despised and abandoned by men,
A man of [d]great pain and (K)familiar with sickness;
And like one from whom people hide their faces,
He was (L)despised, and we had no (M)regard for Him.

4 However, it was our sicknesses that He Himself (N)bore,
And our pains that He carried;
Yet we ourselves assumed that He had been afflicted,
Struck down by (O)God, and humiliated.
5 But He was [e]pierced for (P)our offenses,
He was crushed for (Q)our wrongdoings;
The (R)punishment for our [f]well-being was laid upon Him,
And by (S)His wounds we are healed.
6 All of us, like sheep, have gone astray,
Each of us has turned to his own way;
But the Lord has caused the wrongdoing of us all
To [g]fall on Him.

7 He was oppressed and afflicted,
Yet He did not (T)open His mouth;
(U)Like a lamb that is led to slaughter,
And like a sheep that is silent before its shearers,
So He did not open His mouth.
8 By oppression and judgment He was taken away;
And as for His generation, who considered
That He was cut off from the land of the [h]living
(V)For the wrongdoing of my people, to whom the blow was due?
9 And His grave was assigned with wicked men,
Yet He was with a (W)rich man in His death,
(X)Because He had (Y)done no violence,
Nor was there any deceit in His mouth.

10 But the Lord desired
To (Z)crush Him, [i](AA)causing Him grief;
If He renders [j]Himself as a guilt (AB)offering,
He will see (AC)His [k]offspring,
He will prolong His days,
And the [l]good (AD)pleasure of the Lord will prosper in His hand.
11 As a result of the [m]anguish of His soul,
He will [n](AE)see it and be satisfied;
By His (AF)knowledge the Righteous One,
My Servant, will justify the many,
For He will (AG)bear their wrongdoings.
12 Therefore, I will allot Him a (AH)portion with the great,
And He will divide the plunder with the strong,
Because He poured out His [o](AI)life unto death,
And was (AJ)counted with wrongdoers;
Yet He Himself (AK)bore the sin of many,
And interceded for the wrongdoers.

Isaiah 52:13-53:12
New International Version

The Suffering and Glory of the Servant

13 See, my servant(A) will act wisely[a];
    he will be raised and lifted up and highly exalted.(B)
14 Just as there were many who were appalled(C) at him[b]—
    his appearance was so disfigured(D) beyond that of any human being
    and his form marred beyond human likeness(E)—
15 so he will sprinkle(F) many nations,[c]
    and kings(G) will shut their mouths(H) because of him.
For what they were not told, they will see,
    and what they have not heard, they will understand.(I)

53 Who has believed our message(J)
    and to whom has the arm(K) of the Lord been revealed?(L)
2 He grew up before him like a tender shoot,(M)
    and like a root(N) out of dry ground.
He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him,
    nothing in his appearance(O) that we should desire him.
3 He was despised and rejected by mankind,
    a man of suffering,(P) and familiar with pain.(Q)
Like one from whom people hide(R) their faces
    he was despised,(S) and we held him in low esteem.

4 Surely he took up our pain
    and bore our suffering,(T)
yet we considered him punished by God,(U)
    stricken by him, and afflicted.(V)
5 But he was pierced(W) for our transgressions,(X)
    he was crushed(Y) for our iniquities;
the punishment(Z) that brought us peace(AA) was on him,
    and by his wounds(AB) we are healed.(AC)
6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray,(AD)
    each of us has turned to our own way;(AE)
and the Lord has laid on him
    the iniquity(AF) of us all.

7 He was oppressed(AG) and afflicted,
    yet he did not open his mouth;(AH)
he was led like a lamb(AI) to the slaughter,(AJ)
    and as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
    so he did not open his mouth.
8 By oppression[d] and judgment(AK) he was taken away.
    Yet who of his generation protested?
For he was cut off from the land of the living;(AL)
    for the transgression(AM) of my people he was punished.[e]
9 He was assigned a grave with the wicked,(AN)
    and with the rich(AO) in his death,
though he had done no violence,(AP)
    nor was any deceit in his mouth.(AQ)

10 Yet it was the Lord’s will(AR) to crush(AS) him and cause him to suffer,(AT)
    and though the Lord makes[f] his life an offering for sin,(AU)
he will see his offspring(AV) and prolong his days,
    and the will of the Lord will prosper(AW) in his hand.
11 After he has suffered,(AX)
    he will see the light(AY) of life[g] and be satisfied[h];
by his knowledge[i] my righteous servant(AZ) will justify(BA) many,
    and he will bear their iniquities.(BB)
12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great,[j](BC)
    and he will divide the spoils(BD) with the strong,[k]
because he poured out his life unto death,(BE)
    and was numbered with the transgressors.(BF)
For he bore(BG) the sin of many,(BH)
    and made intercession(BI) for the transgressors.
