- Kapitel 123 -

I lift up my eyes to you

1
A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. I have lifted up my eyes to You, || O dweller in the heavens.
2
Behold, as eyes of menservants || [Are] to the hand of their masters, || As eyes of a maidservant || [Are] to the hand of her mistress, || So [are] our eyes to our God YHWH, || Until He favors us.
3
Favor us, O YHWH, favor us, || For we have been greatly filled with contempt,
4
Our soul has been greatly filled || With the scorning of the easy ones, || With the contempt of the arrogant!

I lift up my eyes to you

1
I lift up my eyes to you, you who sit in the heavens.
2
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 has mercy on us.
3
Have mercy on us, LORD, have mercy on us, for we have endured much contempt.
4
Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scoffing of those who are at ease, with the contempt of the proud.
