17 All my bones can be seen.
My enemies look at me and
stare.
18 They gamble for my clothes
and divide them among
themselves.
19 O LORD, don;t stay away from me!
Come quickly to my rescue!
20 Save me from the sword;
save my life from these dogs.
21 Rescue me from these lions:
I am helpless before these wild
bulls.
22 I will tell my people what you have
done;
I will praise you in their
assembly:
23"Praise him, you descendants of
Jacob!
Worship him, you people of
Israel !
24 He does not neglect the poor or
ignore their suffering;
he does not turn away from
them,
but answers when they call for
help.
25 In the full assembly I will praise
you for what you have done;
in the presence of those who
worship yoy
I will offer the sacrifices I
promised
26 The poor will eat as much as they
want;
those who come to the LORD will
praise him.
May they proper forever!
27 All nations will remember thre
LORD.
From every part of the world
they will turn to him;
all races will worship him.
28 The LORD is king,
and he rules the nations.
29 All proud people will bow down to
him;
all mortals will bow down before
him.
30 Future generations will serve him;
they will speak of the LORD to
the coming generation.
