Psalm 22:14-16

Good News Translation

¹⁴ My strength is gone,
    gone like water spilled on the ground.
All my bones are out of joint;
    my heart is like melted wax.
¹⁵ My throat^[a] is as dry as dust,
    and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth.
You have left me for dead in the dust.

¹⁶ An evil gang is around me;
    like a pack of dogs they close in on me;
    they tear at^[b] my hands and feet.
