² 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.

¹⁵ My ^(A)eyes are ever toward the Lord,
    for he will ^(B)pluck my feet out of the net.

40 I ^(A)waited patiently for the Lord;
    he inclined to me and ^(B)heard my cry.
² He drew me up from ^(C)the pit of destruction,
    out of ^(D)the miry bog,
and ^(E)set my feet upon a rock,
    ^(F)making my steps secure.
³ He put ^(G)a new song in my mouth,
    a song of praise to our God.
Many will ^(H)see and fear,
    and put their trust in the Lord.

¹⁸ I ^(A)wait for your salvation, O Lord.

¹²³ My ^(A)eyes long for your salvation
    and for the fulfillment of your righteous promise.
¹²⁴ Deal with your servant according to your steadfast love,
    and ^(B)teach me your statutes.
¹²⁵ I am your ^(C)servant; ^(D)give me understanding,
    that I may know your testimonies!
