Lamentations 3:8

Even when I cry out and plead for help,
He rejects my prayer.

I cry out to You for help, but You do not answer me;
when I stand up, You merely look at me.

My God, I cry by day, but You do not answer,
by night, yet I have no rest.

I cry out: “Violence!” but get no response;
I call for help, but there is no justice.

Lord God of Hosts,
how long will You be angry
with Your people’s prayers?

You have covered Yourself with a cloud
so that no prayer can pass through.

How long, Lord, must I call for help
and You do not listen
or cry out to You about violence
and You do not save?

About three in the afternoon Jesus cried out with a loud voice, “Elí, Elí, lemá sabachtháni?” that is, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”
