Psalms 22:22-26

The Forsaken Sufferer and the Worldwide Praise of the LORD

A cry of forsakenness moves through remembered trust, public humiliation, urgent petition, answered praise, and finally worldwide testimony to the LORD's righteous saving work.

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

22I will proclaim Your name to my brothers; I will praise You in the assembly.

23You who fear the LORD, praise Him! All descendants of Jacob, honor Him! All offspring of Israel, revere Him!

24For He has not despised or detested the torment of the afflicted. He has not hidden His face from him, but has attended to his cry for help.

25My praise for You resounds in the great assembly; I will fulfill my vows before those who fear You.

26The poor will eat and be satisfied; those who seek the LORD will praise Him. May your hearts live forever!
