1. My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me and from the words of my cry?
2. O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.
3. But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest in the midst of the praises of Israel.
4. Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.
5. They cried unto thee and were delivered: they trusted in thee and were not confounded.
