Psalms 22:2
1 My God, my God, why have You forsaken me? Why are You so far from saving me, so far from my words of groaning?
I cry out by day, O my God, but You do not answer, and by night, but I have no rest.
3 Yet You are holy, enthroned on the praises of Israel.
4 In You our fathers trusted; they trusted and You delivered them.
