15
My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast
brought me into the dust of death.
16
For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced
my hands and my feet.
17
I may tell all my bones: they look
and
stare upon me.
18
They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.
19
But be not thou far from me, O L
ORD
: O my strength, haste thee to help me.
20
Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.
21
Save me from the lion’s mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns.
22
I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise
thee.
23
Ye that fear the L
ORD
, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all
ye the seed of Israel.
24
For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid
his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.
25
My praise
shall be
of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that
fear him.
26
The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the L
ORD
that seek him: your heart
shall live for ever.
27
All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the L
ORD
: and all the kindreds of
the nations shall worship before thee.
28
For the kingdom
is
the L
ORD
’S: and he
is
the governor among the nations.
29
All
they that be
fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust
shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul.
30
A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.
31
They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that
he hath done
this.
CHAPTER 23
The L
ORD
is
my shepherd; I shall not want.
2
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
4
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou
art
with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head
with oil; my cup runneth over.
