Looking at the prosody alone and following the rule of 2 or 3, I have divided verse 2 (1) and 12 (11) as above. I picked verse 12 since there is a verbal connection with verse 2 - but the prosody is different.

Thank you,
I hadn't noticed the other occurrence of this phrase in the psalm. This helps.
I didn't realize originally how important punctuation and phrasing really was.
You've got it down, Bob.
22:2 consists of a pair of 2:2 lines.
22:12 is a single tripartite verse, 2:2:2 if the MT's maqqephim are given full force, 3:3:3 if they are ignored.
