1 I lift up my eyes to You, O You Whose throne is in the heavens.

إلَيكَ أرفَعُ عَينَيَّ، أيُّها المُتَوَّجُ فِي السَّماءِ!

2 S ee, the eyes of servants look to the hand of their owner. The eyes of a woman servant look to the hand of her owner. So our eyes look to the Lord our God, until He shows us loving-kindness.

كَما يَعتَمِدُ العَبدُ عَلَى سَيِّدِهِ، وَالخادِمَةُ عَلَى سَيِّدَتِها، هَكَذا نَحنُ نَتَّكِلُ عَلَى إلَهِنا لِكَي يُبدِيَ لَنا رَحمَةً.

3 S how loving-kindness to us, O Lord. Show loving-kindness to us. For we have had our fill of hate.

ارحَمْنا، يا اللهُ ، ارحَمنا، فَقَدِ اكتَفَينا مِنَ الذُّلِّ

4 T he proud have laughed at us too long. We have had more than enough of their hate.

مِنَ الإهاناتِ وَالاسْتِهزاءِ مِنْ أُولَئِكَ المُرتاحِينَ المُتَغَطرِسِينَ!
