In context

Before · Psalm 22:14–15

14I am poured out like water. All my bones are out of joint. My heart is like wax. It is melted within me. 15My strength is dried up like a potsherd. My tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth. You have brought me into the dust of death.

16For dogs have surrounded me. A company of evildoers have enclosed me. They have pierced my hands and feet.

After · Psalm 22:17–18

17I can count all of my bones. They look and stare at me. 18They divide my garments among them. They cast lots for my clothing.
