American Standard Version
"For dogs have compassed me: A company of evil-doers have inclosed me; They pierced my hands and my feet. "
— Psalms 22:16, American Standard Version
“For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.”
“For dogs have surrounded me. A company of evildoers have enclosed me. They have pierced my hands and feet.”
“Yes, wild dogs surround me– a gang of evil men crowd around me; like a lion they pin my hands and feet.”
“Dogs have come round me: I am shut in by the band of evil-doers; they made wounds in my hands and feet.”
“For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.”
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.
For dogs have compassed me: A company of evil-doers have inclosed me; They pierced my hands and my feet.
I may count all my bones. They look and stare upon me;
They part my garments among them, And upon my vesture do they cast lots.
But be not thou far off, O Jehovah: O thou my succor, haste thee to help me.
