Psalms 22:1

Why Have You Forsaken Me?

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

1 aMy God, my God, why have you forsaken me?
Why are you so bfar from saving me, from the words of my cgroaning?

Isaiah 53

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

And to whom has fthe arm of the Lord been revealed?
2For he grew up before him like a young plant,
gand like a root out of dry ground;
hhe had no form or majesty that we should look at him,
and no beauty that we should desire him.
3 iHe 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 owe esteemed him not.
4 pSurely he has borne our griefs
and carried our sorrows;
yet we esteemed him stricken,
qsmitten by God, and afflicted.
5 rBut he was pierced for our transgressions;
he was crushed for our iniquities;
upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace,
sand with his wounds we are healed.
6 tAll we like sheep have gone astray;
we have turned—every one—to his own way;
uand the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.
7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted,
vyet he opened not his mouth;
wlike a xlamb 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, ywho 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
zand with a rich man in his death,
although aahe had done no violence,
and there was no deceit in his mouth.
10 Yet abit was the will of the Lord to crush him;
he has put him to grief;
Or  he has made him sick

adwhen his soul makes
Or  when you make his soul
an offering for guilt,
he shall see his offspring; he shall prolong his days;
afthe 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 ahthe righteous one, my servant,
aimake many to be accounted righteous,
ajand he shall bear their iniquities.
12 akTherefore I will divide him a portion with the many,
Or  with the great

amand 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;
aoyet he bore the sin of many,
and makes intercession for the transgressors.

Luke 24:44

44Then he said to them, apThese are my words that I spoke to you while I was still with you, aqthat everything written about me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled.”
