Psalm 22:9-15

New International Version

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

¹¹ Do not be far from me,^(D)
    for trouble is near^(E)
    and there is no one to help.^(F)

¹² Many bulls^(G) surround me;^(H)
    strong bulls of Bashan^(I) encircle me.
¹³ Roaring lions^(J) that tear their prey^(K)
    open their mouths wide^(L) against me.
¹⁴ I am poured out like water,
    and all my bones are out of joint.^(M)
My heart has turned to wax;^(N)
    it has melted^(O) within me.
¹⁵ My mouth^[a] is dried up like a potsherd,^(P)
    and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth;^(Q)
    you lay me in the dust^(R) of death.
