Psalm 123
Contemporary English Version
(A song for worship.)
A Prayer for Mercy
1 Our Lord and our God,
I turn my eyes to you,
on your throne in heaven.
2 Servants look to their master,
but we will look to you,
until you have mercy on us.
3 Please have mercy, Lord!
We have been insulted
more than we can stand,
4 and we can't take more abuse
from those proud,
conceited people.

Salmos 123
La Biblia de las Américas
Oración pidiendo ayuda del Señor
Cántico de ascenso gradual[a].
123 A ti levanto mis ojos(A),
¡oh tú que reinas[b] en los cielos(B)!
2 He aquí, como los ojos de los siervos miran a la mano de su señor(C),
como los ojos de la sierva a la mano de su señora,
así nuestros ojos miran al Señor nuestro Dios(D)
hasta que se apiade de nosotros.
3 Ten piedad de nosotros, oh Señor, ten piedad de nosotros(E),
porque muy hartos estamos de desprecio(F).
4 Harta en extremo está nuestra alma
del escarnio(G) de los que están en holgura(H),
y del desprecio de los soberbios(I).

Psalm 123
New International Version
Psalm 123
A song of ascents.
1 I lift up my eyes to you,
to you who sit enthroned(A) in heaven.
2 As the eyes of slaves look to the hand of their master,
as the eyes of a female slave look to the hand of her mistress,
so our eyes look to the Lord(B) our God,
till he shows us his mercy.
3 Have mercy on us, Lord, have mercy on us,
for we have endured no end of contempt.
4 We have endured no end
of ridicule from the arrogant,
of contempt from the proud.
