Psalm 21:2 Douay-Rheims

O God my God, look upon me: why hast thou forsaken me? Far from my salvation are the words of my sins.

Francis Patrick Kenrick

1796–1863 Catholic

-Christ might call the sins of men His own, because He undertook to expiate them. Isaiah liii. 5. P. "Why art Thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?" By complaining that His cries and groans pass unheeded, He leads us to consider the mysterious cause of His apparent abandonment by His Father.
