I'm sorry, I don't want or need to go to a Christian forum to understand what is written in Hebrew in the Hebrew bible.

I would have left the post here but the forum was acting up.

Psalm 22:16
HEB: מְ֭רֵעִים הִקִּיפ֑וּנִי כָּ֝אֲרִ֗י יָדַ֥י וְרַגְלָֽי׃
KJV: have inclosed me: they pierced my hands
INT: of evildoers has encompassed dig my hands and my feet

The Psalms Scroll found at Qumran did not include 22:16 because the manuscript was damaged at the very place where it would have appeared.

Scraps from a scroll containing some of the Psalms were discovered at Nachal Hever, and one scrap contained the line from Psalm 22:16 with the word in question well in view. Though the writing on the scrap was faint, under magnification it was easy to see and decipher. The word clearly ended in a vav and not a yod, and was therefore a 3rd person plural verb: “they dug” or “they pierced.”


Isaiah 53:5. Wounded. Interpretation, pierced.

Zechariah 12:10. Stabbed. Interpretation, pierced.
