7 All who see me make fun of me—they gape, shaking their heads:
8 "He committed himself to the Lord, so let God rescue him;let God deliver himbecause God likes him so much."
9 But you are the one who pulled me from the womb,placing me safely at my mother’s breasts.
10 I was thrown on you from birth;you’ve been my Godsince I was in my mother’s womb.
11 Please don’t be far from me,because trouble is nearand there’s no one to help.
12 Many bulls surround me;mighty bulls from Bashan encircle me.
13 They open their mouths at melike a lion ripping and roaring!
