Psalm 22:1-2

 

¹ My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?
    Why are you so far from saving me,
    so far from the words of my groaning?
² O my God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer,
    by night, and am not silent.

Matthew 27:45-46

 ⁴⁵ From the sixth hour until the ninth hour darkness came over all the land. ⁴⁶ About the ninth hour Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?”—which means, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”
