Psalm 22:16

From Suffering To Praise

¹⁵
My strength is dried up like a fragment of clay pottery;
And my [dry] tongue clings to my jaws;
And You have laid me in the dust of death.
¹⁶ 
For [a pack of] dogs have surrounded me;
A gang of evildoers has encircled me,
They pierced my hands and my feet.
¹⁷
I can count all my bones;
They look, they stare at me.
