Psalm 22:23-31

Contemporary English Version

²³ All who worship the Lord,
    now praise him!
You belong to Jacob's family
and to the people of Israel,
    so fear and honor the Lord!
²⁴ The Lord doesn't hate
or despise the helpless
    in all of their troubles.
When I cried out, he listened
    and did not turn away.

²⁵ When your people meet,
you will fill my heart
    with your praises, Lord,
and everyone will see me
    keep my promises to you.
²⁶ The poor will eat and be full,
and all who worship you
    will be thankful
    and live in hope.

²⁷ Everyone on this earth
    will remember you, Lord.
People all over the world
    will turn and worship you,
²⁸ because you are in control,
    the ruler of all nations.

²⁹ All who are rich
and have more than enough
    will bow down to you, Lord.
Even those who are dying
and almost in the grave
    will come and bow down.
³⁰ In the future, everyone
will worship and learn
    about you, our Lord.
³¹ People not yet born
will be told,
    “The Lord has saved us!”
