On that day Sarah was deeply upset in her heart and wept. She went upstairs to a room in her father's house, and planned to hang herself. But she had second thoughts and said, "They will never insult my father by saying to him, ‘You had but one dearly loved daughter, and she hanged herself because of her troubles.' If I did this, I would bring my old father down to the grave in sorrow. It is better for me not to hang myself, but to beg of the Lord to let me die so that I no longer hear insults during my lifetime."

At that moment, she stretched her hands out toward the window and prayed: "You are blessed, merciful God, and your name is blessed forever! May all your works forever praise you!
12
And now, Lord, I lift my face and my eyes toward you.
13
Speak the word, and set me free from the earth so that I don't have to hear insults anymore.

You know, Master, that I'm pure from any uncleanness from relations with a man.
