ו בְּיָדְךָ, אַפְקִיד רוּחִי: פָּדִיתָ אוֹתִי יְהוָה--אֵל אֱמֶת.

Into Thy hand I commit my spirit; Thou hast redeemed me, O LORD, Thou God of truth. (Psalm 31:5)

Your instrument of power, active strength, creative organ...

I will seek for, attend to, visit, need...

to be ransomed, rescued, delivered...

Existing one, past-present-future, I-am...

Master of reality, pillar of the universe, mighty one...

Who is firm, faithful, sure, reliable.

According to Luke's gospel Jesus quoted from this passage just before dying on the cross.
