Salmo Responsorial 21

My God, my God, why have you forsaken me
and are far from my cry and my prayer?

All who see me mock me;
they curl their lips, they shake their heads:
"He trusted in the Lord, let him save him;
let him release him, if this is his friend!"

Dogs surround me,
a pack of villains encircles me;
they pierce my hands and my feet
and I can count all my bones.

They divide my clothes among them
and cast lots for my garment.
But you, Lord, do not be far from me.
You are my strength; come quickly to help me!

I will proclaim your name to my people;
in the assembly I will praise you.
You who fear the Lord, praise him!
All you descendants of Jacob, honor him!

My God, my God, why have you forsaken me
and are far from my cry and my prayer?
