Psalm 22:21-31

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

From the horns of the wild oxen you have rescued^[a] me.^(A)
22 I will tell of your name to my brothers and sisters;^[b]
    in the midst of the congregation I will praise you:^(B)
23 You who fear the Lord, praise him!
    All you offspring of Jacob, glorify him;
    stand in awe of him, all you offspring of Israel!^(C)
24 For he did not despise or abhor
    the affliction of the afflicted;
he did not hide his face from me^[c]
    but heard when I^[d] cried to him.^(D)

²⁵ From you comes my praise in the great congregation;
    my vows I will pay before those who fear him.^(E)
26 The poor^[e] shall eat and be satisfied;
    those who seek him shall praise the Lord.
    May your hearts live forever!^(F)

²⁷ All the ends of the earth shall remember
    and turn to the Lord,
and all the families of the nations
    shall worship before him.^[f](G)
28 For dominion belongs to the Lord,
    and he rules over the nations.^(H)

²⁹ To him,^[g] indeed, shall all who sleep in^[h] the earth bow down;
    before him shall bow all who go down to the dust,
    and I shall live for him.^[i](I)
30 Posterity will serve him;
    future generations will be told about the Lord^(J)
31 and^[j] proclaim his deliverance to a people yet unborn,
    saying that he has done it.^(K)
