祈求上帝怜悯

上圣殿朝圣之诗。

123 在天上做王的耶和华啊!
我仰望你。
我们要仰望我们的上帝耶和华,
如同仆人仰望主人、婢女仰望主母,
一直到蒙祂怜悯。
耶和华啊,
求你怜悯我们,求你怜悯我们,
因为我们饱受鄙视。
我们饱受富足人的嘲弄、骄傲人的鄙视。

祈求上帝憐憫

上聖殿朝聖之詩。

123 在天上做王的耶和華啊!
我仰望你。
我們要仰望我們的上帝耶和華,
如同僕人仰望主人、婢女仰望主母,
一直到蒙祂憐憫。
耶和華啊,
求你憐憫我們,求你憐憫我們,
因為我們飽受鄙視。
我們飽受富足人的嘲弄、驕傲人的鄙視。

A Song of degrees.

¶ Unto thee I lift up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens.

Behold, as the eyes of slaves 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 he shall have mercy upon us.

Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us, for we are exceedingly weary of being held in contempt.

Our soul is exceedingly weary of the scorning of those that are at ease and of the contempt of the proud.
