Psalms 22
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1(22-1) For the Leader; upon Aijeleth ha-Shahar. A Psalm of David. (22-2) My God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken me, and art far from my help at the words of my cry?
1Psalmus David. [Dominus regit me, et nihil mihi deerit:
2(22-3) O my God, I call by day, but Thou answerest not; and at night, and there is no surcease for me.
2in loco pascuæ, ibi me collocavit. Super aquam refectionis educavit me;
3(22-4) Yet Thou art holy, O Thou that art enthroned upon the praises of Israel.
3animam meam convertit. Deduxit me super semitas justitiæ propter nomen suum.
4(22-5) In Thee did our fathers trust; they trusted, and Thou didst deliver them.
4Nam etsi ambulavero in medio umbræ mortis, non timebo mala, quoniam tu mecum es. Virga tua, et baculus tuus, ipsa me consolata sunt.
5(22-6) Unto Thee they cried, and escaped; in Thee did they trust, and were not ashamed.
5Parasti in conspectu meo mensam adversus eos qui tribulant me; impinguasti in oleo caput meum: et calix meus inebrians, quam præclarus est !
6(22-7) But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.
6Et misericordia tua subsequetur me omnibus diebus vitæ meæ; et ut inhabitem in domo Domini in longitudinem dierum.]
7(22-8) All they that see me laugh me to scorn; they shoot out the lip, they shake the head:
