22:1 For the music director, according to the tune “Morning Doe”; a psalm of David.

My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?

I groan in prayer, but help seems far away.

2 My God, I cry out during the day,

but you do not answer,

and during the night my prayers do not let up.

3 You are holy;

you sit as king receiving the praises of Israel.

4 In you our ancestors trusted;

they trusted in you and you rescued them.
