1 My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?I groan in prayer, but help seems far away.
2 My God, I cry out during the day,but you do not answer,and during the night my prayers do not let up.
3 You are holy;you sit as king receiving the praises of Israel.
4 In you our ancestors trusted;they trusted in you and you rescued them.
5 To you they cried out, and they were saved;in you they trusted and they were not disappointed.
6 But I am a worm, not a man;people insult me and despise me.
7 All who see me taunt me;they mock me and shake their heads.
