Greek text · Archambault 2:140

Καὶ τὸ Ὡσεὶ ὕδωρ ἐξεχύθη καὶ διεσκορπίσθη πάντα τὰ ὀστᾶ μου, ἐγενήθη ἡ καρδία μου ὡσεὶ κηρὸς τηκόμενος ἐν μέσῳ τῆς κοιλίας μου, ὅπερ γέγονεν αὐτῷ ἐκείνης τῆς νυκτός, ὅτε ἐπʼ αὐτὸν ἐξῆλθον εἰς τὸ ὄρος τῶν ἐλαιῶν συλλαβεῖν αὐτόν, προαγγελία ἦν.

English · Claude translation

“And ‘I am poured out like water, and all my bones are scattered; my heart has become like wax melting in the midst of my belly,’ was a foretelling of what happened to him on that night when they came out against him to the Mount of Olives to seize him.
