1WHO hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?
2For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
3He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

7He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.
8He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
9And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.

11He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.
12Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

11He shall see of the trauell of his soule, and shalbe satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous seruant iustifie many: for hee shall beare their iniquities.
12**Therefore will I diuide him a portion with the great, and he shall diuide the spoile with the strong: because hee hath powred out his soule vnto death: and he was numbred with the transgressours, and he bare the sinne of many, and made intercession for the transgressours.

1MY God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?
2O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.
3But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.
4Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.
5They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.
6But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.
7All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,
8He trusted on the Lord that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.
9But thou art he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother’s breasts.

1SAVE me, O God; for the waters are come in unto my soul.
2I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.
3I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: mine eyes fail while I wait for my God.
4They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of mine head: they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored that which I took not away.
5O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my sins are not hid from thee.
6Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord God of hosts, be ashamed for my sake: let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel.
7Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face.
8I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother’s children.
9For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.
10When I wept, and chastened my soul with fasting, that was to my reproach.
11I made sackcloth also my garment; and I became a proverb to them.
12They that sit in the gate speak against me; and I was the song of the drunkards.
13But as for me, my prayer is unto thee, O Lord, in an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation.
14Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.
15Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.
16Hear me, O Lord; for thy lovingkindness is good: turn unto me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.
17And hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in trouble: hear me speedily.
18Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it: deliver me because of mine enemies.
19Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonour: mine adversaries are all before thee.
20Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.
21They gave me also gall for my meat; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
22Let their table become a snare before them: and that which should have been for their welfare, let it become a trap.
23Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their loins continually to shake.
24Pour out thine indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.
25Let their habitation be desolate; and let none dwell in their tents.
26For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten; and they talk to the grief of those whom thou hast wounded.
27Add iniquity unto their iniquity: and let them not come into thy righteousness.
28Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous.
29But I am poor and sorrowful: let thy salvation, O God, set me up on high.
30I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.
31This also shall please the Lord better than an ox or bullock that hath horns and hoofs.
32The humble shall see this, and be glad: and your heart shall live that seek God.
33For the Lord heareth the poor, and despiseth not his prisoners.
34Let the heaven and earth praise him, the seas, and every thing that moveth therein.
35For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah: that they may dwell there, and have it in possession.
36The seed also of his servants shall inherit it: and they that love his name shall dwell therein.
1¶ Saue mee, O God, for the waters are come in vnto my soule.
2††I sinke in deepe mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deepe waters, where the flouds ouerflow me.
3I am weary of my crying, my throate is dried: mine eyes faile while I waite for my God.
4They that hate mee without a cause, are moe then the haires of mine head: they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mightie: then I restored that which I tooke not away.
5†O God, thou knowest my foolishnesse; and my sinnes are not hidde from thee.
6Let not them that waite on thee, O LORD God of hostes, be ashamed for my sake: let not those that seeke thee, be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel.
7Because for thy sake I haue borne reproch: shame hath couered my face.
8I am become a stranger vnto my brethren, and an aliant vnto my mothers children.
9**For the zeale of thine house hath eaten mee vp; and the reproches of them that reproched thee, are fallen vpon me.
10When I wept, and chastened my soule with fasting, that was to my reproch.
11I made sackecloth also my garment: & I became a prouerbe to them.
12†They that sit in the gate, speake against mee; and I was the song of the drunkards.
13But as for mee, my prayer is vnto thee, O LORD, in an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of thy mercie heare me, in the trueth of thy saluation.
14Deliuer me out of the mire, and let me not sinke: let me bee deliuered from them that hate me, and out of the deepe waters.
15Let not the water flood ouerflow me, neither let the deepe swallow mee vp, and let not the pit shut her mouth vpon me.
16Heare me, O LORD, for thy louing kindnesse is good: turne vnto mee according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.
17And hide not thy face from thy seruant, for I am in trouble: †heare me speedily.
18Draw nigh vnto my soule, and redeeme it: deliuer me because of mine enemies.
19Thou hast knowen my reproch and my shame and my dishonor: mine aduersaries are all before thee.
20Reproch hath broken my heart, and I am full of heauines: and I looked for some †to take pitie, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.
21They gaue mee also gall for my meat, *and in my thirst they gaue mee vineger to drinke.
22*Let their table become a snare before them: and that which should haue bene for their welfare, let it become a trap.
23Let their eyes be darkened that they see not; and make their loines continually to shake.
24Powre out thine indignation vpon them, and let thy wrathfull anger take hold of them.
25Let their †habitation be desolate, and †let none dwell in their tents.
26For they persecute him whō thou hast smitten, and they talke to the griefe of †those whom thou hast wounded.
27Adde ‖iniquitie vnto their iniquitie: and let them not come into thy righteousnesse.
28Let them bee blotted out of the booke of the liuing, and not be written with the righteous.
29But I am poore, and sorowfull: let thy saluation (O God) set me vp on high.
30I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnifie him with thankesgiuing.
31 This also shall please the LORD better then an oxe or bullocke that hath hornes and hoofes.
32The ‖humble shall see this, and be glad: and your heart shall liue that seeke good.
33For the LORD heareth the poore, and despiseth not his prisoners.
34Let the heauen and earth praise him, the seas, and euery thing that †moueth therein.
35For God will saue Sion, and will build the cities of Iudah, that they may dwell there, and haue it in possession.
36The seede also of his seruants shall inherit it: and they that loue his name shall dwell therein.
