What does the Hebrew word y shakalatoni y la bactani mean?
"y shakalatoni y la bactani" is not Hebrew. Perhaps you are referring to the Aramaic phrase "Eli Eli lama sabachthani?" that Jesus said while on the Cross according to Matthew 27:46. It means "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?" and is from Psalm 22. However, this is not Hebrew. The original Hebrew is "Eli Eli, lama azavtani?"
Can you find the Book of Psalms in Aramaic?
It may be very difficult to find the Book of Psalms in Aramaic since the Psalms were composed in Hebrew and not translated until the time of the Septuagint (and then only to Greek and Syriac). As far as I am aware, such a thing does not exist, but keep looking. Specifically the "Eli, Eli, Lama Sabachtani?" is the Aramaic Translation of Psalm 22:2 which in Hebrew is "Eli, Eli, Lama Azavtani?" and in English is "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?"
