Psalm 22:1-31 KJV

To the chief Musician upon Aijeleth Shahar, A Psalm of David.

[1] 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 LORD 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. 

[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 LORD: 

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 LORD, 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 LORD that seek him: 

Your heart shall live for ever. 

[27] All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: 

And all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee. 

[28] For the kingdom is the LORD’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.

Passion of Christ

“My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me.” How amazing to read this soul-wrenching outcry to God written by David thousands of years before Jesus said them Himself before dying on the cross. This entire Psalm is an emotional, gut-wrenching prophetic revelation of Christ’s suffering at Calvary. David’s vision presented deep details which are verified later in the gospels. I could take the time to discuss each verse, but I would prefer each person read this Psalm with an open heart to personally recognize the truth of what Jesus did so we would not perish but have everlasting life (John 3:16).

I will never truly understand Jesus’ love for me. He was wounded for my transgressions, He was bruised for my iniquity, the chastisement of my peace was upon Him and by His stripes I am healed (Isaiah 53:5). I thank Him that I will never have to feel the desperate sorrow and complete loss of connection with God. He will never leave me or forsake me. Thank you Jesus.
