上行之诗。

求主怜悯

123 坐在天上的主啊,
    我向你举目。
看哪,仆人的眼睛怎样仰望主人的手,
    婢女的眼睛怎样仰望女主人的手,
我们的眼睛也照样仰望耶和华—我们的 神,
    直到他怜悯我们。

耶和华啊,求你怜悯我们,怜悯我们!
    因为我们受尽了藐视。
我们受尽了安逸人的讥诮
    和骄傲人的藐视。

Our Eyes Look to the Lord Our God

A Song of (A)Ascents.

123 To you I (B)lift up my eyes,
    O you who are (C)enthroned in the heavens!
Behold, as the eyes of servants
    look to the hand of their master,
as the eyes of a maidservant
    to the hand of her mistress,
so our eyes look to the Lord our God,
    till he has mercy upon us.

(D)Have mercy upon us, O Lord, have mercy upon us,
    for we have had more than enough of (E)contempt.
Our soul has had more than enough
    of (F)the scorn of (G)those who are at ease,
    of the contempt of (H)the proud.

Psalm 123

A song of ascents.

I lift up my eyes to you,
    to you who sit enthroned(A) in heaven.
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.

Have mercy on us, Lord, have mercy on us,
    for we have endured no end of contempt.
We have endured no end
    of ridicule from the arrogant,
    of contempt from the proud.
