Dogs have surrounded me; a band of evil men has encircled me, they have pierced my hands and my feet.
I can count all my bones;
people stare and gloat over me.
They divide my garments among them
and cast lots for my clothing.
But you, O Lord, be not far off; O my Strength, come quickly to
help me.
Deliver my life from the sword, my precious life from
the power of the dogs.
Psalm 22: 16-20
