Heu me, dolens sum de Joseph perdito

Jacob was lamenting for his two sons, saying:
Woe is me, I am distraught over the loss of Joseph,
and deeply sad for Benjamin, taken as surety.

I beseech the heavenly king that he might make it possible for miserable me to see them.

Prostrating himself greatly with tears with his face to the earth, and worshipping, Jacob said this.
