Psalm 123 ~ Psalm 123

picture

1 U nto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens.

To You I lift up my eyes, O You who are enthroned in the heavens!

2 B ehold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters, and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes wait upon the Lord our God, until that he have mercy upon us.

Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, As the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress, So our eyes look to the Lord our God, Until He is gracious to us.

3 H ave mercy upon us, O Lord, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.

Be gracious to us, O Lord, be gracious to us, For we are greatly filled with contempt.

4 O ur soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud.

Our soul is greatly filled With the scoffing of those who are at ease, And with the contempt of the proud.
