New Jerusalem Bible	Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
¹ [For the choirmaster To 'the Doe of the Dawn' Psalm Of David] My God, my God, why have youforsaken me? The words of my groaning do nothing to save me.	¹ To the choirmaster: according to The Hind of the Dawn. A Psalm of David. My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? Why art thou so far from helping me, from the words of my groaning?
² My God, I cal by day but you do not answer, at night, but I find no respite.	² O my God, I cry by day, but thou dost not answer; and by night, but find no rest.
³ Yet you, the Holy One, who make your home in the praises of Israel,	³ Yet thou art holy, enthroned on the praises of Israel.
⁴ in you our ancestors put their trust, they trusted and you set them free.	⁴ In thee our fathers trusted; they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.
⁵ To you they cal ed for help and were delivered; in you they trusted and were not put to shame.	⁵ To thee they cried, and were saved; in thee they trusted, and were not disappointed.
⁶ But I am a worm, less than human, scorn of mankind, contempt of the people;	⁶ But I am a worm, and no man; scorned by men, and despised by the people.
⁷ al who see me jeer at me, they sneer and wag their heads,	⁷ All who see me mock at me, they make mouths at me, they wag their heads;
⁸ 'He trusted himself to Yahweh, let Yahweh set him free! Let him deliver him, as he took such delight inhim.'	⁸ "He committed his cause to the LORD; let him deliver him, let him rescue him, for he delights in him!"
⁹ It was you who drew me from the womb and soothed me on my mother's breast.	⁹ Yet thou art he who took me from the womb; thou didst keep me safe upon my mother's breasts.
¹⁰ On you was I cast from my birth, from the womb I have belonged to you.	¹⁰ Upon thee was I cast from my birth, and since my mother bore me thou hast been my God.
¹¹ Do not hold aloof, for trouble is upon me, and no one to help me!	¹¹ Be not far from me, for trouble is near and there is none to help.
¹² Many bulls are encircling me, wild bul s of Bashan closing in on me.	¹² Many bulls encompass me, strong bulls of Bashan surround me;
¹³ Lions ravening and roaring open their jaws at me.	¹³ they open wide their mouths at me, like a ravening and roaring lion.
¹⁴ My strength is trickling away, my bones are al disjointed, my heart has turned to wax, melting insideme.	¹⁴ I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint; my heart is like wax, it is melted within my breast;
¹⁵ My mouth is dry as earthenware, my tongue sticks to my jaw. You lay me down in the dust of death.	¹⁵ my strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue cleaves to my jaws; thou dost lay me in the dust of death.
¹⁶ A pack of dogs surrounds me, a gang of villains closing in on me as if to hack off my hands and myfeet.	¹⁶ Yea, dogs are round about me; a company of evildoers encircle me; they have pierced my hands and feet--
¹⁷ I can count every one of my bones, while they look on and gloat;	¹⁷ I can count all my bones-- they stare and gloat over me;
¹⁸ they divide my garments among them and cast lots for my clothing.	¹⁸ they divide my garments among them, and for my raiment they cast lots.
¹⁹ Yahweh, do not hold aloof! My strength, come quickly to my help,	¹⁹ But thou, O LORD, be not far off! O thou my help, hasten to my aid!
²⁰ rescue my soul from the sword, the one life I have from the grasp of the dog!	²⁰ Deliver my soul from the sword, my life from the power of the dog!
²¹ Save me from the lion's mouth, my poor life from the wild bul s' horns!	²¹ Save me from the mouth of the lion, my afflicted soul from the horns of the wild oxen!
²² I shal proclaim your name to my brothers, praise you in ful assembly:	²² I will tell of thy name to my brethren; in the midst of the congregation I will praise thee:
²³ 'You who fear Yahweh, praise him! Al the race of Jacob, honour him! Revere him, all the race ofIsrael!'	²³ You who fear the LORD, praise him! all you sons of Jacob, glorify him, and stand in awe of him, all you sons of Israel!
²⁴ For he has not despised nor disregarded the poverty of the poor, has not turned away his face, buthas listened to the cry for help.	²⁴ For he has not despised or abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; and he has not hid his face from him, but has heard, when he cried to him.
²⁵ Of you is my praise in the thronged assembly, I wil perform my vows before al who fear him.	²⁵ From thee comes my praise in the great congregation; my vows I will pay before those who fear him.
²⁶ The poor wil eat and be fil ed, those who seek Yahweh wil praise him, 'May your heart live for ever.'	²⁶ The afflicted shall eat and be satisfied; those who seek him shall praise the LORD! May your hearts live for ever!
²⁷ The whole wide world wil remember and return to Yahweh, al the families of nations bow downbefore him.	²⁷ All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the LORD; and all the families of the nations shall worship before him.
²⁸ For to Yahweh, ruler of the nations, belongs kingly power!	²⁸ For dominion belongs to the LORD, and he rules over the nations.
²⁹ Al who prosper on earth wil bow before him, al who go down to the dust wil do reverence beforehim. And those who are dead,	²⁹ Yea, to him shall all the proud of the earth bow down; before him shall bow all who go down to the dust, and he who cannot keep himself alive.
³⁰ their descendants wil serve him, wil proclaim his name to generations	³⁰ Posterity shall serve him; men shall tell of the Lord to the coming generation,
³¹ stil to come; and these will tel of his saving justice to a people yet unborn: he has fulfilled it.	³¹ and proclaim his deliverance to a people yet unborn, that he has wrought it.
