American Standard Version

Psalm 22:14-26 American Standard Version (ASV)

14. I am poured out like water, And all my bones are out of joint: My heart is like wax; It is melted within me.

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: A company of evil-doers have inclosed me; They pierced my hands and my feet.

17. I may count 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 Jehovah: O thou my succor, 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 assembly will I praise thee.

23. Ye that fear Jehovah, 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 assembly: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.

26. The meek shall eat and be satisfied; They shall praise Jehovah that seek after him: Let your heart live for ever.
