Psalms 22:4-15 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

4. Yet you are enthroned as the Holy One;you are the glory of Israel.

5. In you our fathers trusted;they trusted and you rescued them.

6. To you they cried out and they escaped;in you they trusted and were not disappointed.

7. But I am a worm, not a man,scorned by men, despised by the people.

8. All who see me mock me;they curl their lips and jeer;they shake their heads at me:

9. “He relied on the Lord—let him deliver him;if he loves him, let him rescue him.”

10. For you drew me forth from the womb,made me safe at my mother’s breasts.

11. Upon you I was thrust from the womb;since my mother bore me you are my God.

12. Do not stay far from me,for trouble is near,and there is no one to help.

13. Many bulls surround me;fierce bulls of Bashan encircle me.

14. They open their mouths against me,lions that rend and roar.

15. Like water my life drains away;all my bones are disjointed.My heart has become like wax,it melts away within me.
