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?"
