6
For thou hast made him most blessed for ever: thou hast made him exceeding glad with
thy countenance.
7
For the king trusteth in the L
ORD
, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be
moved.
8
Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate
thee.
9
Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger: the L
ORD
shall swallow
them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.
10
Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of
men.
11
For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous device,
which
they are
not able
to perform.
12
Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back,
when
thou shalt make ready
thine arrows
upon thy strings against the face of them.
13
Be thou exalted, L
ORD
, in thine own strength:
so
will we sing and praise thy power.
CHAPTER 22
My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
why art thou so
far from helping me,
and from
the
words of my roaring?
2
O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not
silent.
3
But thou
art
holy,
O thou
that inhabitest the praises of Israel.
4
Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.
5
They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.
6
But I
am
a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.
7
All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head
saying,
8
He trusted on the L
ORD
that
he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted
in him.
9
But thou
art
he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope
when I was
upon
my mother’s breasts.
10
I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou
art
my God from my mother’s belly.
11
Be not far from me; for trouble
is
near; for
there is
none to help.
12
Many bulls have compassed me: strong
bulls
of Bashan have beset me round.
13
They gaped upon me
with
their mouths,
as
a ravening and a roaring lion.
14
I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is
melted in the midst of my bowels.
