The virgin daughter of Judah is full of pain and sobbing, she bewails herself [and] spreads her hands [in prayer] from the depths of her captivity. From the narrowness [of distress] I call out to You, Answer me with the breadth of Divine relief; from out of fire and water bring her into safety.

**The Metsudah Selichos: translated and annotated by Rabbi Avrohom Davis, Metsudah Publications, 1986:**
She lifts her eyes for help, she looks to all sides; she trembles [like a woman] giving birth to her first child, her birth pains are compounded by her delicate nature. She claps her hands, and murmurs in her thoughts: “Where now is my hope, and [the fulfillment of] my hope who will see?”

You have abandoned Your people, the House of Israel, in the land of their captivity; they are tossed about in the enemies’ land like a ship in the heart of the sea. Babes ask their fathers: “Where are the wonders of the shepherd?”¹ Where is He Who brought them out of the [Reed] Sea?
