שַׂק תָּפַרְתִּי עֲלֵי גִלְדִּי וְעֹלַלְתִּי בֶעָפָר קַרְנִֽי
I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin, And have laid my horn in the dust.
פָּנַי חמרמרה מִנִּי־בֶכִי וְעַל עַפְעַפַּי צַלְמָֽוֶת
My face is reddened with weeping, And on my eyelids is the shadow of death;
עַל לֹא־חָמָס בְּכַפָּי וּֽתְפִלָּתִי זַכָּֽה
Although there is no violence in my hands, And my prayer is pure.
אֶרֶץ אַל־תְּכַסִּי דָמִי וְֽאַל־יְהִי מָקוֹם לְזַעֲקָתִֽי
O earth, cover not thou my blood, And let my cry have no resting-place.
גַּם־עַתָּה הִנֵּה־בַשָּׁמַיִם עֵדִי וְשָׂהֲדִי בַּמְּרוֹמִֽים
Even now, behold, my Witness is in heaven, And He that testifieth of me is on high.
