Psalm 22:31

 1 My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?   Why are you so far   from saving me, so far from my cries of anguish?    2 My God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer,   by night,   but I find no rest.   3 Yet you are enthroned as the Holy One;   you are the one Israel praises.     4 In you our ancestors put their trust; they trusted and you delivered them.    5 To you they cried out   and were saved; in you they trusted   and were not put to shame.    6 But I am a worm   and not a man, scorned by everyone,   despised   by the people.  7 All who see me mock me;   they hurl insults,   shaking their heads.    8 “He trusts in the Lord,” they say, “let the Lord rescue him.   Let him deliver him,   since he delights   in him.”  9 Yet you brought me out of the womb;   you made me trust   in you, even at my mother’s breast.  10 From birth   I was cast on you; from my mother’s womb you have been my God.  11 Do not be far from me,   for trouble is near   and there is no one to help.    12 Many bulls   surround me;   strong bulls of Bashan   encircle me.  13 Roaring lions   that tear their prey   open their mouths wide   against me.  14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint.   My heart has turned to wax;   it has melted   within me.  15 My mouth  is dried up like a potsherd,   and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth;   you lay me in the dust   of death.  16 Dogs   surround me, a pack of villains encircles me; they pierce    my hands and my feet.  17 All my bones are on display; people stare   and gloat over me.    18 They divide my clothes among them and cast lots   for my garment.    19 But you, Lord, do not be far from me.   You are my strength;   come quickly   to help me.    20 Deliver me from the sword,   my precious life   from the power of the dogs.    21 Rescue me from the mouth of the lions;   save me from the horns of the wild oxen.    22 I will declare your name to my people; in the assembly   I will praise you.    23 You who fear the Lord, praise him!   All you descendants of Jacob, honor him!   Revere him,   all you descendants of Israel!  24 For he has not despised   or scorned the suffering of the afflicted one;   he has not hidden his face   from him but has listened to his cry for help.    25 From you comes the theme of my praise in the great assembly;   before those who fear you  I will fulfill my vows.    26 The poor will eat   and be satisfied; those who seek the Lord will praise him—   may your hearts live forever!  27 All the ends of the earth   will remember and turn to the Lord, and all the families of the nations will bow down before him,    28 for dominion belongs to the Lord   and he rules over the nations.  29 All the rich   of the earth will feast and worship;   all who go down to the dust   will kneel before him— those who cannot keep themselves alive.    30 Posterity   will serve him; future generations   will be told about the Lord.  31 They will proclaim his righteousness,   declaring to a people yet unborn:   He has done it!  

From Wikipedia: 

The New International Version (NIV) is an English translation of the Bible first published in 1978 by Biblica (formerly the International Bible Society). The NIV was published to meet the need for a modern translation done by Bible scholars using the earliest, highest quality manuscripts available. Of equal importance was that the Bible be expressed in broadly understood modern English.

The NIV is published by Zondervan in the United States and Hodder & Stoughton in the UK. The NIV was updated in 1984 and 2011 and has become one of the most popular and best-selling modern translations.
