Psalm 22

For the choir director; according to ayyeleth hashachar;[a] a psalm by David.

My El, my El,
    why have you abandoned me?
    Why are you so far away from helping me,
        so far away from the words of my groaning?
My Elohim,
    I cry out by day, but you do not answer—
        also at night, but I find no rest.
