I am

I am weary with my sighing, I flood, through the whole night, my couch, - With my tears, I cause, my bed, to dissolve:

How long, O Yahweh, wilt thou wholly forget me? How long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

My God! I keep crying - By day, and thou dost not answer, and, By night, and there is no rest for me.

Who, in the days of his flesh, having offered up, both supplications and entreaties unto him that was able to save him out of death, with mighty outcries and tears, and been hearkened to by reason of his devoutness,

My throat

But they put in my food - poison! And, for my thirst, they gave for my drink - vinegar!

Dried as a potsherd, is my strength, And, my tongue, is made to cleave to my gums, And, in the dust of death, wilt thou lay me.

After this, Jesus, knowing that, already, all things, have been finished, - that the Scripture might be fulfilled, saith - I thirst!

Mine

Mine eyes have failed for thy word, saying, When wilt thou comfort me?

Thy sons and thy daughters given to another people, thine eyes looking on, and failing for them all the day, thine own hand being powerless.

But, the eyes of the lawless, shall fail, - and, place of refuge, shall have vanished from them, and, their hope, be a breathing out of life.

My face, is reddened from weeping, and, upon mine eyelashes, is the death-shade: -

As a twittering swallow, so, do I chatter, I coo as a dove, - Mine eyes languish through looking on high, O My Lord! distress is upon me - my Surety!

Blinded with tears are mine eyes, In ferment is my body, Poured out to the earth is my grief, for the sore hurt of the daughter of my people, - when child and suckling are swooning, in the broadways of the city.

I wait

Let, blamelessness and uprightness, watch over me, because I have waited for thee.

Now, therefore, for what have I waited, O My Lord? My hope, is, in thee.

General references

Mine eyes, have become dim for thy salvation, and for thy righteous word.
