A cry of anguish, and a song of praise.

For the Chief Musician; set to That is, The hind of the morning . Aijeleth hash-Shahar. A Psalm of David.

¹My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning?

²My God, I cry in the daytime, but you don`t answer; In the night season, and am not silent.

³But you are holy, You who inhabit the praises of Israel.

⁴Our fathers trusted in you. They trusted, and you delivered them.

⁵They cried to you, and were delivered. They trusted in you, and were not put to shame.

⁶But I am a worm, and no man; A reproach of men, and despised by the people.

⁷All those who see me mock me. They insult me with their lips. They shake their heads, saying,

⁸"He trusts in Yahweh; Let him deliver him; Let him rescue him, since he delights in him."

⁹But you brought me out of the womb. You made me trust at my mother`s breasts.
