O all you, who pass by the way - attend and see, if there is a sorrow like My sorrow. Since many dogs have surrounded Me - a council of the malignant besieges Me. They indeed have considered and inspected Me - they have divided for themselves My vestments and upon My garment they have cast lots. They have pierced My hands and My feet - and they have numbered out all My bones. They have opened above Me their mouth - as a lion seizing and roaring. As water have I been poured out - and all My bones have been dispersed. And My heart has become like molten wax - in the middle of My belly. Dried up as an earthen pot is My virtue - and My tongue adhered to My throat. And they gave Me gall for My food - and in My thirst they gave Me vinegar to drink. And into the dust of death they have lead Me - and upon the sorrow of My wounds they have added sorrow. I slept and I rose - and My Most Holy Father took Me up with glory. Holy Father , Thou has held My right hand ~ and in Thy will Thou has led Me - and with glory Thou has assumed Me. For what is there for Me in Heaven - and apart from Thee what have I wanted on earth? See, see that I am God, says the Lord - I shall be exalted among the nations and I shall be exalted on the Earth. Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, who redeems the souls of His servants from His very own Most Holy Blood - and does not forsake all who hope in Him. And we know, that He comes - that He comes to judge with justice.
