Psalms 22 — English–Hebrew Parallel

1 My Al, my Al, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so rachawaq (far) from yashawaih (salvation) me, and from the dabaray (words) of my groaning?

2 My Alahayam (), I qaraa (called) in the yawamam (by day), but you don't inah (answer / respond); in the layal (night) season, and am not dawamayah (silent).

3 But you are qadawash (holy), you who yashab (inhabit/dwell) the thahalawath (praises) of Yashar-Al (Israel).

4 Our ab (father) batach (trusted) in you. They batach (trusted), and you palat (delivered) them.

5 They zaiq (cried) to you, and were malat (delivered). They batach (trusted) in you, and were not disappointed.

6 But I am a thawalai (worm), and no ayash (man / husband); a charapah (reproach) of adam (men), and bazah (despised) by the adam (people).

7 All those who raah (see / saw) me laig (mock) me. They insult me with their shapah (lips). They nawai (shake) their raash (head), saying,

8 “He galal (trusts) in Yahawah (); let him palat (deliver) him. Let him rescue him, since he chapatz (delights) in him.”

9 But you gayach (brought) me out of the batan (womb). You batach (made) me trust at my am (mother) shaday (breasts).

10 I was shalak (thrown) on you from my mother's racham (show mercy / love). You are my Al since my am (mother) batan (bore) me.

11 Don't be rachaq (far) from me, for tzarah (trouble) is qarawab (near). For there is none to izar (help).

12 Many parayam (bulls) have surrounded me. Abayar (strong) bulls of Bashan (Bashan) have encircled me.

13 They patzah (open) their pah (mouths) wide against me, aray (lions) tarap (tearing) prey and shaag (roaring).

14 I am shapak (poured) out like mayam (Waters). All my itzam (bones) are out of parad (joint). My lab (heart) is like dawanag (wax); it is masas (melted) thawak (midst) me.

15 My kach (strength / mighty / power) is yabash (dry land) up like a charash (potsherd). My lashawan (tongue / language) dabaq (sticks) to the roof of my malaqawach (mouth). You have shapath (brought) me into the ipar (dust) of mawath (death).

16 For kalabayam (dogs) have surrounded me. A idah (company) of evildoers have enclosed me. They have pierced my yad (hand) and ragal (feet / foot).

17 I can sapar (book) all of my itzam (bones). They nabat (look) and raah (see / saw) at me.

18 They chalaq (divide) my bagad (garments) among them. They napal (fall / be cast down) gawaral (lots) for my labawash (clothing).

19 But don't be rachaq (far) off, Yahawah (). You are my help: hurry to izarah (help) me.

20 Natzal (deliver) my napash (soul) from the charab (sword), my precious life from the yad (hand) of the kalab (dog).

21 Yashai (salvation) me from the aray (lion's) pah (mouth)! Yes, from the qaranay (horns) of the wild oxen, you have inah (answer / respond) me.

22 I will sapar (book) your sham (name) to my ach (brother/kinsman). In the thawak (midst) of the qahal (assembly), I will halal (praise) you.

23 You who yaraa (fear) Yahawah (), halal (praise) him! All you descendants of Yaiqab (Jacob), kabad (glorify) him! Gawar (stand) in awe of him, all you descendants of Yashar-Al (Israel)!

24 For he has not bazah (despised) nor shaqatz (abhorred) the inawath (affliction) of the inay (afflicted), Neither has he sathar (hidden) his panayam (face) from him; but when he shawai (cried) to him, he shamai (hearken / hear).

25 Of you comes my thahalah (praise) in the rab (great) qahal (assembly). I will shalam (pay) my nadar (vow) before those who yaraa (fear) him.

26 The inaw (humble) shall akal (eat) and be shabai (satisfied). They shall halal (praise) Yahawah () who darash (seek) after him. Let your labab (hearts) chayah (live) id (until / as far as).

27 All the apasay (ends) of the aratz (Earth/land) shall zakar (remember) and shawab (turn back / repent) to Yahawah (). All the relatives of the gawayam (nations) shall shachah (worship) panayam (face) you.

28 For the malawakah (kingdom) is Yahawah (). He is the mashal (rule/have dominion) over the gawayam (nations).

29 All the rich ones of the aratz (Earth/land) shall akal (eat) and shachah (worship). All those who yarad (go) down to the ipar (dust) shall karai (bow) panayam (face) him, even he who can't keep his napash (soul) chayah (alive).

30 Posterity shall ibad (servant) him. Future dawar (generation / age / period) shall be sapar (book) about the Adanay ().

31 They shall bawaa (bring) and shall nagad (declare) his tzadaqah (righteousness) to a im (nation / people) that shall be yalad (birth / begot), for he ishah (make) done it.
