In the days of his flesh, Jesus offered up prayers and supplications, with loud cries and tears, to him who was able to save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverence.
Out of my distress I called on the Lord; the Lord answered me and set me free.
This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him and saved him out of all his troubles.
O my God, I cry by day, but you do not answer, and by night, but I find no rest.
But I am a worm and not a man, scorned by mankind and despised by the people.
Then Jesus, calling out with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!” And having said this he breathed his last.
Hide not your face from your servant, for I am in distress; make haste to answer me.
All my bones shall say, “O Lord, who is like you, delivering the poor from him who is too strong for him, the poor and needy from him who robs him?”
