Why Have You Forsaken Me?

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

1 dMy God, my God, why have you forsaken me?
Why are you so efar from saving me, from the words of my fgroaning?
2O my God, I cry by gday, but you do not answer,
and by night, but I find no rest.
3 Yet you are hholy,
ienthroned on jthe praises
Or dwelling in the praises
of Israel.
4In you our fathers trusted;
they trusted, and you delivered them.
5To you they lcried and were rescued;
in you they mtrusted and were not put to shame.
6 But I am na worm and not a man,
oscorned by mankind and pdespised by the people.
7All who see me qmock me;
they make mouths at me; they rwag their heads;
8 s“He trusts in the Lord; let him tdeliver him;
let him rescue him, for he udelights in him!”
9 Yet you are he who vtook me from the womb;
you made me trust you at my mother’s breasts.
10On you was I cast from my birth,
and from wmy mother’s womb you have been my God.
11Be not xfar from me,
for trouble is near,
and there is ynone to help.
12 Many bulls encompass me;
zstrong bulls of aaBashan surround me;
13they abopen wide their mouths at me,
like a ravening and roaring lion.
14 I am acpoured out like water,
and all my bones are adout of joint;
my aeheart is like afwax;
it is melted within my breast;
15my strength is agdried up like a potsherd,
and my ahtongue sticks to my jaws;
you lay me in the dust of death.
16 For aidogs encompass me;
a company of evildoers ajencircles me;
they have akpierced my hands and feet
Some Hebrew manuscripts, Septuagint, Vulgate, Syriac; most Hebrew manuscripts like a lion [they are at] my hands and feet

17I can count all my bones
they amstare and gloat over me;
18 anthey divide my garments among them,
and for my clothing they cast lots.
19 But you, O Lord, aodo not be far off!
O you my help, apcome quickly to my aid!
20Deliver my soul from the sword,
my precious life from the power of aqthe dog!
21Save me from arthe mouth of the lion!
You have rescued
Hebrew answered
me from the horns of atthe wild oxen!
22 auI will tell of your name to my avbrothers;
in the midst of the congregation I will praise you:
23You who awfear the Lord, praise him!
All you offspring of Jacob, axglorify him,
and stand in awe of him, all you offspring of Israel!
24For he has not despised or abhorred
the affliction of aythe afflicted,
and he has not azhidden his face from him,
but has heard, when he bacried to him.
25 From you comes my praise in the great bbcongregation;
my bcvows I will bdperform before those who fear him.
26 beThe afflicted
Or  The meek
shall bgeat and be satisfied;
those who seek him shall praise the Lord!
May your hearts bhlive forever!
27 All bithe ends of the earth shall remember
and turn to the Lord,
and all bjthe families of the nations
shall worship before you.
28For bkkingship belongs to the Lord,
and he rules over the nations.
29 All blthe prosperous of the earth eat and worship;
before him shall bmbow all who go down to the dust,
even the one who could not bnkeep himself alive.
30Posterity shall serve him;
it shall be told of the Lord to the coming bogeneration;
31they shall bpcome and proclaim his righteousness to a people yet bqunborn,
that he has done it.

Psalms 69:1-21

Save Me, O God

To the choirmaster: according to brLilies. Of David.

1 Save me, O God!
For bsthe waters have come up to my neck.
Or  waters threaten my life

2I sink in deep bumire,
where there is no foothold;
I have come into deep waters,
and the flood bvsweeps over me.
3 bwI am weary with my crying out;
bxmy throat is parched.
byMy eyes grow dim
with bzwaiting for my God.
4 caMore in number than the hairs of my head
are cbthose who hate me ccwithout cause;
mighty are those who would destroy me,
cdthose who attack me with lies.
What I did not steal
must I now restore?
5O God, you know my folly;
the wrongs I have done are not hidden from you.
6 Let not those who hope in you cebe put to shame through me,
O Lord God of hosts;
let not those who seek you be brought to dishonor through me,
O God of Israel.
7For it is cffor your sake that I have borne reproach,
that dishonor has covered my face.
8I have become cga stranger to my brothers,
an alien to my mother’s sons.
9 For chzeal for your house has consumed me,
and cithe reproaches of those who reproach you have fallen on me.
10When I wept and humbled
Hebrew lacks  and humbled
my soul with fasting,
it became my reproach.
11When I made cksackcloth my clothing,
I became cla byword to them.
12I am the talk of those who cmsit in the gate,
and the drunkards make cnsongs about me.
13 But as for me, my coprayer is to you, O Lord.
At cpan acceptable time, O God,
in the abundance of your steadfast love answer me in your saving faithfulness.
14Deliver me
from sinking in cqthe mire;
crlet me be delivered from my enemies
and from csthe deep waters.
15Let not the flood sweep over me,
or the deep swallow me up,
or ctthe pit close cuits mouth over me.
16 Answer me, O Lord, for your cvsteadfast love is good;
according to your abundant cwmercy, cxturn to me.
17 cyHide not your face from your servant,
czfor I am in distress; damake haste to answer me.
18Draw near to my soul, redeem me;
ransom me because of my enemies!
19 You know my dbreproach,
and my shame and my dishonor;
my foes are all known to you.
20 dcReproaches have broken my heart,
so that I am in dddespair.
I delooked for dfpity, but there was none,
and for dgcomforters, but I found none.
21They gave me dhpoison for food,
and for my thirst they gave me disour wine to drink.

Isaiah 50:5-6

5 djThe Lord God has opened my ear,
dkand I was not rebellious;
I turned not backward.
6 dlI gave my back to those who strike,
and my cheeks to those who pull out the beard;
I hid not my face
from disgrace and spitting.

Isaiah 53

1 dmWho has believed what he has heard from us?
Or  Who has believed what we have heard?

And to whom has dothe arm of the Lord been revealed?
2For he grew up before him like a young plant,
dpand like a root out of dry ground;
dqhe had no form or majesty that we should look at him,
and no beauty that we should desire him.
3 drHe was despised and rejected
Or forsaken
by men,
a man of sorrows,
Or pains; also verse 4
and acquainted with
Or  and knowing
grief;
Or sickness; also verse 4

and as one from whom men hide their faces
Or  as one who hides his face from us

he was despised, and dxwe esteemed him not.
4 dySurely he has borne our griefs
and carried our sorrows;
yet we esteemed him stricken,
dzsmitten by God, and afflicted.
5 eaBut he was pierced for our transgressions;
he was crushed for our iniquities;
upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace,
eband with his wounds we are healed.
6 ecAll we like sheep have gone astray;
we have turned—every one—to his own way;
edand the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.
7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted,
eeyet he opened not his mouth;
eflike a eglamb that is led to the slaughter,
and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent,
so he opened not his mouth.
8By oppression and judgment he was taken away;
and as for his generation, ehwho considered
that he was cut off out of the land of the living,
stricken for the transgression of my people?
9And they made his grave with the wicked
eiand with a rich man in his death,
although ejhe had done no violence,
and there was no deceit in his mouth.
10 Yet ekit was the will of the Lord to crush him;
he has put him to grief;
Or  he has made him sick

emwhen his soul makes
Or  when you make his soul
an offering for guilt,
he shall see his offspring; he shall prolong his days;
eothe will of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.
11Out of the anguish of his soul he shall see
Masoretic Text; Dead Sea Scroll  he shall see light
and be satisfied;
by his knowledge shall eqthe righteous one, my servant,
ermake many to be accounted righteous,
esand he shall bear their iniquities.
12 etTherefore I will divide him a portion with the many,
Or  with the great

evand he shall divide the spoil with the strong,
Or  with the numerous

because he poured out his soul to death
and was numbered with the transgressors;
exyet he bore the sin of many,
and makes intercession for the transgressors.

Daniel 9:26

26And after the sixty-two weeks, an anointed one shall eybe cut off and shall have nothing. And the people of the prince who is to come ezshall destroy the city and the sanctuary. faIts
Or His
end shall come with a flood, fcand to the end there shall be war. fdDesolations are decreed.

Matthew 26:54

54 feBut how then should the Scriptures be fulfilled, that it must be so?”

Matthew 26:56

56But ffall this has taken place that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled.” fgThen all the disciples left him and fled.
