Psalms 22:16 in Context — Psalms 22

14 Eu me derramei como água, e todos os meus ossos se soltaram uns dos outros; meu coração é como cera, [e] se derreteu por entre meus órgãos.

15 Minha força se secou como um caco de barro, e minha língua está grudada no céu da boca; e tu me pões no pó da morte;

16 Porque cães ficaram ao meu redor; uma multidão de malfeitores me cercou; perfuraram minhas mãos e meus pés.

17 Eu poderia contar todos os meus ossos; eles estão [me] olhando, e prestando atenção em mim.

18 Eles repartem entre si minhas roupas; e sobre minha vestimenta eles lançam sortes.
