Psalm 22 of David with many Messianic References to Jesus Christ

1 My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?

2 O my God, I cry in the day time, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.

3 But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.

4 Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.

5 They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.

6 But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.

7 All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,

8 He trusted on the Lord that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.

9 But thou art he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother's breasts.

10 I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother's belly.

11 Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.

12 Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.

13 They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.

14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.

15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.

16 For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.

17 I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.

18 They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.

19 But be not thou far from me, O Lord: O my strength, haste thee to help me.

20 Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.

21 Save me from the lion's mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns.

22 I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.

23 Ye that fear the Lord, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.

24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.

25 My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.

26 The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the Lord that seek him: your heart shall live for ever.

27 All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the Lord: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.

28 For the kingdom is the Lord's: and he is the governor among the nations.

29 All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul.

30 A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.

31 They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this.


​Psalm 22 is believed by many to be messianic in nature. In other words, this psalm is believed to predict or foreshadow not only the existence and coming of Jesus Christ but the Crucifixion. This psalm is believed to be written originally more than 500 years before the birth of Jesus Christ and contains content that closely parallels the events of the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ. While some believe that this verse was written about someone else and was not meant to refer to the future Messiah, the content of the psalm makes a strong case of being focused on Jesus Christ and the Crucifixion. 

The first verse of the Psalm 22 begins with: "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me,?" a direct parallel to the description recorded in Matthew 27:46.

Verse 7 says: "All who see me mock me; they hurl insults, shaking their heads." Psalm 22 (Matthew 27:39)

Verse 8 says: "He trusts in the Lord,” they say, “let the Lord rescue him. Let him deliver him, since he delights in him.” Psalm 22 (Matthew 27:43)

Verse 16 says: "Dogs surround me, a pack of villains encircles me; they pierce[e] my hands and my feet." Psalm 22 (John 19:37, Zechariah 12:10)

Verse 17 says: "All my bones are on display; people stare and gloat over me." Psalm 22 (Matthew 27:39, John 19:37, Zechariah 12:10)

Verse 18 says: "They divide my clothes among them and cast lots for my garment." Psalm 22 (Matthew 27:35)

Psalm 22 is believed to be written by David, who is known as an ancestor of the line of Jesus Christ, and Jesus is known as the "Son of David" in addition to the "Son of Man" and "Son of God". Some may say this verse was written about someone else, maybe even David, but the content gives strong evidence of Jesus and the Crucifixion event.
