Salmos 22
Portuguese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
Salve-me da morte
Ao diretor do coro. Pela melodia “A corça da manhã”. Salmo de Davi.
22 Meu Deus, meu Deus,
por que me abandonou?
Por que está tão longe de me salvar?
Por que não ouve os meus lamentos?
2 Meu Deus, eu chamo pelo Senhor de dia e de noite,
mas o Senhor não me ouve, não me dá descanso.
3 O Senhor é santo,
rodeado pelos louvores de Israel!
4 Os nossos antepassados confiaram no Senhor;
confiaram e o Senhor os livrou.
5 Pediram ajuda ao Senhor e foram salvos;
confiaram no Senhor e não ficaram desapontados.
6 Mas eu não sou homem,
sou um verme, insultado e desprezado pelo povo.
7 Todos os que me veem me desprezam,
zombam de mim e abanam a cabeça com desprezo.
8 Eles dizem: “Peça ao SENHOR que o salve!
Que o SENHOR o salve, já que o ama tanto”.
9 Mas foi o Senhor que me tirou do ventre da minha mãe,
foi o Senhor que me fez sentir seguro no peito dela.
10 O Senhor tem sido o meu Deus desde o dia em que nasci;
quando saí do ventre da minha mãe,
foram os seus braços que me seguraram.
11 Por isso, não me deixe,
porque o perigo está perto
e não tenho ninguém que me ajude.
12 Os meus inimigos me rodeiam como touros,
como touros fortes de Basã, prontos para me atacarem.
13 Rugem como leões,
abrem a boca como leões famintos.
14 Me sinto fraco, como água derramada no chão.
Os meus ossos estão deslocados.
O meu coração tornou-se como cera
e se derrete dentro de mim.
15 A minha boca está seca como o pó,
a minha língua fica grudada ao céu da minha boca.
O Senhor me deixou no pó, à beira da morte.
16 Os maus me cercaram;
eles se aproximam como se fossem cães.
Eles prenderam as minhas mãos e os meus pés
como se eu fosse um leão.[a]
17 Posso contar todos os meus ossos.
Os meus inimigos não tiram os olhos de mim.
18 Repartem as minhas roupas entre eles
e jogam dados para ver quem fica com a minha túnica.
19 SENHOR, não me deixe sozinho!
O Senhor é a minha força,
venha me ajudar depressa!
20 Salve-me da morte,
salve a minha vida destes cães.
21 Salve-me da boca do leão, e dos chifres dos touros.
E o Senhor ouviu a minha oração!
22 Contarei ao meu povo o que fez,
no meio da assembleia cantarei os seus louvores.
23 Louvem o SENHOR, todos aqueles que o temem.
Deem-lhe toda a glória, todos os descendentes de Jacó.
Respeitem-no, todos os descendentes de Israel.
24 Porque ele nunca se esquece dos pobres que estão sofrendo.
Nem se envergonha deles.
Quando o procuram, ele não se esconde
e quando o chamam, ele responde.
25 O Senhor é a razão do meu louvor na grande assembleia.
No meio daqueles que o temem cumprirei as promessas feitas.
26 Todos os pobres,
venham comer até ficarem satisfeitos.[b]
Aqueles que buscam o SENHOR,
irão adorá-lo e viverão para sempre.
27 Que todas as nações se lembrem e voltem para o SENHOR.
Que todas as nações se prostrem e o adorem.
28 Porque o SENHOR é rei,
ele reina sobre todas as nações.
29 Todos os fortes da terra, adorem-no,
ajoelhem-se diante dele, todos os que estão prestes a morrer
e os que já não têm vida.
30 Os nossos filhos servirão ao Senhor
e os que ainda não nasceram ouvirão falar dele.
31 Cada geração contará aos seus filhos
tudo o que o Senhor fez.

Psalm 22
New King James Version
The Suffering, Praise, and Posterity of the Messiah
To the Chief Musician. Set to [a]“The Deer of the Dawn.” A Psalm of David.
22 My (A)God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?
Why are You so far from helping Me,
And from the words of My groaning?
2 O My God, I cry in the daytime, but You do not hear;
And in the night season, and am not silent.
3 But You are holy,
Enthroned in the (B)praises of Israel.
4 Our fathers trusted in You;
They trusted, and You delivered them.
5 They cried to You, and were delivered;
(C)They trusted in You, and were not ashamed.
6 But I am (D)a worm, and no man;
(E)A reproach of men, and despised by the people.
7 (F)All those who see Me ridicule Me;
They [b]shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,
8 “He(G) [c]trusted in the Lord, let Him rescue Him;
(H)Let Him deliver Him, since He delights in Him!”
9 (I)But You are He who took Me out of the womb;
You made Me trust while on My mother’s breasts.
10 I was cast upon You from birth.
From My mother’s womb
(J)You have been My God.
11 Be not far from Me,
For trouble is near;
For there is none to help.
12 (K)Many bulls have surrounded Me;
Strong bulls of (L)Bashan have encircled Me.
13 (M)They [d]gape at Me with their mouths,
Like a raging and roaring lion.
14 I am poured out like water,
(N)And all My bones are out of joint;
My heart is like wax;
It has melted [e]within Me.
15 (O)My strength is dried up like a potsherd,
And (P)My tongue clings to My jaws;
You have brought Me to the dust of death.
16 For dogs have surrounded Me;
The congregation of the wicked has enclosed Me.
(Q)They[f] pierced My hands and My feet;
17 I can count all My bones.
(R)They look and stare at Me.
18 (S)They divide My garments among them,
And for My clothing they cast lots.
19 But You, O Lord, do not be far from Me;
O My Strength, hasten to help Me!
20 Deliver Me from the sword,
(T)My[g] precious life from the power of the dog.
21 (U)Save Me from the lion’s mouth
And from the horns of the wild oxen!
(V)You have answered Me.
22 (W)I will declare Your name to (X)My brethren;
In the midst of the assembly I will praise You.
23 (Y)You who fear the Lord, praise Him!
All you [h]descendants of Jacob, glorify Him,
And fear Him, all you offspring of Israel!
24 For He has not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted;
Nor has He hidden His face from Him;
But (Z)when He cried to Him, He heard.
25 (AA)My praise shall be of You in the great assembly;
(AB)I will pay My vows before those who fear Him.
26 The poor shall eat and be satisfied;
Those who seek Him will praise the Lord.
Let your heart live forever!
27 All the ends of the world
Shall remember and turn to the Lord,
And all the families of the [i]nations
Shall worship before [j]You.
28 (AC)For the kingdom is the Lord’s,
And He rules over the nations.
29 (AD)All the prosperous of the earth
Shall eat and worship;
(AE)All those who go down to [k]the dust
Shall bow before Him,
Even he who cannot keep himself alive.
30 A posterity shall serve Him.
It will be recounted of the Lord to the next generation,
31 They will come and declare His righteousness to a people who will be born,
That He has done this.

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
Psalm 22[a]
To the Chief Musician; set to [the tune of] Aijeleth Hashshahar [the hind of the morning dawn]. A Psalm of David.
1 My God, my God, why have You forsaken me? Why are You so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning?(A)
2 O my God, I cry in the daytime, but You answer not; and by night I am not silent or find no rest.
3 But You are holy, O You Who dwell in [the holy place where] the praises of Israel [are offered].
4 Our fathers trusted in You; they trusted (leaned on, relied on You, and were confident) and You delivered them.
5 They cried to You and were delivered; they trusted in, leaned on, and confidently relied on You, and were not ashamed or confounded or disappointed.
6 But I am a worm, and no man; I am the scorn of men, and despised by the people.(B)
7 All who see me laugh at me and mock me; they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,(C)
8 He trusted and rolled himself on the Lord, that He would deliver him. Let Him deliver him, seeing that He delights in him!(D)
9 Yet You are He Who took me out of the womb; You made me hope and trust when I was on my mother’s breasts.
10 I was cast upon You from my very birth; from my mother’s womb You have been my God.
11 Be not far from me, for trouble is near and there is none to help.
12 Many [foes like] bulls have surrounded me; strong bulls of Bashan have hedged me in.(E)
13 Against me they opened their mouths wide, like a ravening and roaring lion.
14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint. My heart is like wax; it is softened [with anguish] and melted down within me.
15 My strength is dried up like a fragment of clay pottery; [with thirst] my tongue cleaves to my jaws; and You have brought me into the dust of death.(F)
16 For [like a pack of] dogs they have encompassed me; a company of evildoers has encircled me, they pierced my hands and my feet.(G)
17 I can count all my bones; [the evildoers] gaze at me.(H)
18 They part my clothing among them and cast lots for my raiment (a long, shirtlike garment, a seamless undertunic). (I))
19 But be not far from me, O Lord; O my Help, hasten to aid me!
20 Deliver my life from the sword, my dear life [my only one] from the power of the dog [the agent of execution].
21 Save me from the lion’s mouth; for You have answered me [kindly] from the horns of the wild oxen.
22 I will declare Your name to my brethren; in the midst of the congregation will I praise You.(J)
23 You who fear (revere and worship) the Lord, praise Him! All you offspring of Jacob, glorify Him. Fear (revere and worship) Him, all you offspring of Israel.
24 For He has not despised or abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither has He hidden His face from him, but when he cried to Him, He heard.
25 My praise shall be of You in the great congregation. I will pay to Him my vows [made in the time of trouble] before them who fear (revere and worship) Him.
26 The poor and afflicted shall eat and be satisfied; they shall praise the Lord—they who [diligently] seek for, inquire of and for Him, and require Him [as their greatest need]. May your hearts be quickened now and forever!
27 All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the Lord, and all the families of the nations shall bow down and worship before You,
28 For the kingship and the kingdom are the Lord’s, and He is the ruler over the nations.
29 All the mighty ones upon earth shall eat [in thanksgiving] and worship; all they that go down to the dust shall bow before Him, even he who cannot keep himself alive.
30 Posterity shall serve Him; they shall tell of the Lord to the next generation.
31 They shall come and shall declare His righteousness to a people yet to be born—that He has done it [that it is finished]!(K)
Footnotes
- Psalm 22:1 “This is beyond all others ‘The Psalm of the Cross.’ It may have been actually repeated by our Lord when hanging on the tree; it would be too bold to say so, but even a casual reader may see that it might have been. It begins with, ‘My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?’ and ends [with the thought], ‘It is finished.’ For plaintive expressions uprising from unutterable depths of woe, we may say of this psalm, ‘There is none like it’” (Charles Haddon Spurgeon, The Treasury of David). Quoted in the Gospels (Matt. 27:46; Mark 15:34; and alluded to in Matt. 27:35, 39, 43 and John 19:23-24, 28) as being fulfilled at Christ’s crucifixion.
