[many sabachtha'ni] (σαβαχθανί, a Graecized form of the Chaldee shebakta'ni, שְׁבִקְתִּנַי, thou hast left me), quoted by our Lord upon the cross (Matthew 17:46; Mark 15:34) from the Targum on Psalms 22:2 (where the Heb. has azabta'ni, עֲזִבְתִּנַי, "thou hast forsaken me"). See Petersen, Erforschung des Wortes σαβαχθανί (s.l. 1701). (See AGONY).
