יְֽהוָ֗ה בִּרְצוֹנְךָ֮ הֶעֱמַ֪דְתָּה לְֽהַרְרִ֫י עֹ֥ז הִסְתַּ֥רְתָּ פָנֶ֗יךָ הָיִ֥יתִי נִבְהָֽל׃
Seigneur, dans ta bonté, tu avais puissamment fortifié ma montagne. Mais tu as caché ta face: j’ai été consterné!

And this is what Rabba bar Bar Chana [was hinting to], saying: "We saw that fish" etc. Because in our exile it is as if the Holy Blessed One is hiding [His] face, as is written (Ps. 30): "If You would hide Your face," which is a symbol of compassion; but He has turned His back, which is like judgement. And all our prayers and requests about this, that He turned his back to us, are that He should return His face, as is written (there, 86): "O turn unto me," and as is written (Num. 6): "May Hashem shine His face."
