Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied from His journey, sat thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.

Therefore, in all things He had to be made like His brethren, that He might be a merciful and faithful High Priest in the things pertaining to God, in order to make propitiation for the sins of the people.

For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin.

And so it was, at noon, that Elijah mocked them and said, Cry aloud, for he is a god; either he is meditating, or he is busy, or he is on a journey, or perhaps he is sleeping and must be awakened.

And when midday was past, they prophesied until the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice. But there was no voice; no one answered, no one paid attention.

If you would earnestly seek the Mighty God and make your supplication to the Almighty,

if you were pure and upright, surely now He would awake for you, and would have restored your righteous abode.

Awake! Why do You sleep, O Lord? Arise! Do not cast us off forever.

Why do You hide Your face, and forget our affliction and distress?

Awake! awake! Put on strength, O arm of Jehovah. Awake, as in the days of antiquity, in the generations of old. Was it not You who cut Rahab into pieces, wounding the dragon?

Was it not You who dried up the sea, the waters of the great deep; who made the depths of the sea a way for the redeemed to pass over?

And His disciples came to Him and awoke Him, saying, Lord, save us! We are perishing!

And they came to Him and awoke Him, saying, Master, Master, we are perishing! Then He arose and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water. And they ceased, and there was a calm.

Why do You stand afar off, O Jehovah? Will You hide in times of distress?

The wicked in his pride persecutes the lowly; let them be caught in the plots that they have devised.

i1 [To the Chief Musician. Aijeleth Shahar. A Psalm of David.] i0 par My Mighty God, My Mighty God, why have You forsaken Me, and are far from My deliverance, and from the words of My groaning?

O My God, I cry in the daytime, but You do not answer; and in the nighttime, and am not silent.

Will the Lord cast off forever? And will He be pleased no more?

Has the Mighty God forgotten to be gracious? Has He in anger shut up His tender mercies? Selah

Why do you say, O Jacob, and speak, O Israel, My way is hidden from Jehovah and my judgment is passed over by God?

Have you not known? Have you not heard, that the eternal God, Jehovah, the Creator of the ends of the earth, does not grow faint nor weary? His understanding is unsearchable.

But Zion said, Jehovah has forsaken me, and my Lord has forgotten me.

Behold, I have engraved you on the palms of My hands; your walls are perpetually before Me.

For Jehovah has called you as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, like a wife of youth, when you were rejected, says your God.

In overflowing wrath I hid My face from you for a moment; but with everlasting kindness I will have mercy upon you, says Jehovah your Redeemer.

Look down from Heaven, and look down from the place of Your holiness and of Your glory. Where is Your zeal and Your strength, the multitude of Your tender affections and of Your mercies toward me? Are they restrained?

Will You restrain Yourself over these things, O Jehovah? Will You be silent and greatly afflict us?

Also when I cry and shout, He shuts out my prayer.

casting all your anxiety upon Him, because He cares about you.
