 * God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
 * Why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?
 * O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not;
 * And in the night season, and am not silent.
 * But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.
 * Our fathers trusted in thee:
 * They trusted, and thou didst deliver them.
 * They cried unto thee, and were delivered:
 * They trusted in thee, and were not confounded.
 * But I am a worm, and no man;
 * A reproach of men, and despised of the people.
 * All they that see me laugh me to scorn:
 * They shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying.
 * He trusted on the Lord that he would deliver him:
 * Let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.
 * But thou art he that took me out of the womb:
 * Thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother's breasts.
 * I was cast upon thee from the womb:
 * Thou art my God from my mother's belly.
 * Be not far from me; for trouble is near;
