2. [3] Elohai, I cry yomam, but Thou hearest not; and v'lailah, and am not silent.
3. [4] But Atah Kadosh, O Thou enthroned on the tehillot Yisroel.
4. [5] Avoteinu trusted in Thee; they had bitachon, and Thou didst deliver them.
5. [6] They cried unto Thee, and were delivered; they had bitachon in Thee, and were not disappointed.
6. [7] But I am a tola'at, and no ish; a reproach of men, and despised of the people [see Yeshayah 53:3 on the despised Moshiach].
7. [8] All they that see me mock me; they shoot out the lip, they shake the rosh, saying,
8. [9] He trusted in Hashem; let Hashem rescue him; let Him deliver him, since He delights in him.
9. [10] But Thou art He that took me out of the womb; Thou didst make me trust when I was upon the breasts of immi.
10. [11] I was cast upon Thee from the womb; Thou art Eli from the womb of immi.
11. [12] Be not far from me; for tzoros is near; and there is none to help.
12. [13] Parim rabbim (many bulls) have encompassed me; strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round about.
13. [14] They opened wide their mouths upon me, like an aryeh roaring and tearing prey.
14. [15] I am poured out like mayim, and all my atzmot are out of joint; my lev is like wax; it is melted away within me.
