Psalm 22:1-3

Revised Standard Version

Plea for Deliverance from Suffering and Hostility

To the choirmaster: according to The Hind of the Dawn. A Psalm of David.

22 My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
Why art thou so far from helping me, from the words of my groaning?
²O my God, I cry by day, but thou dost not answer;
and by night, but find no rest.

³Yet thou art holy,
enthroned on the praises of Israel.
