Psalms 22:27-31

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

27 All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to the LORD. All the families of the nations will bow down before Him.

28 For dominion belongs to the LORD and He rules over the nations.

29 All the rich of the earth will feast and worship; all who go down to the dust will kneel before Him—even those unable to preserve their lives.

30 Posterity will serve Him; they will declare the Lord to a new generation.

31 They will come and proclaim His righteousness to a people yet unborn—all that He has done.
