"Many bulls have compassed me; Strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round. "
— Psalms 22:12, American Standard Version
“Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.”
“Many bulls have surrounded me. Strong bulls of Bashan have encircled me.”
“Many bulls surround me; powerful bulls of Bashan hem me in.”
“A great herd of oxen is round me: I am shut in by the strong oxen of Bashan.”
“Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.”
But thou art he that took me out of the womb; Thou didst make me trust when I was upon my mother’s breasts.
I was cast upon thee from the womb; Thou art my God since my mother bare me.
Be not far from me; for trouble is near; For there is none to help.
Many bulls have compassed me; Strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.
They gape upon me with their mouth, Asa ravening and a roaring lion.
I am poured out like water, And all my bones are out of joint: My heart is like wax; It is melted within me.
My strength is dried up like a potsherd; And my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; And thou hast brought me into the dust of death.
