Psalm 123

Looking for God’s Favor

A song of ascents.

1 I lift my eyes to you,
the one enthroned in heaven.(A)
2 Like a servant’s eyes on his master’s hand,
like a servant girl’s eyes on her mistress’s hand,
so our eyes are on the Lord our God
until he shows us favor.(B)

3 Show us favor, Lord, show us favor,
for we’ve had more than enough contempt.(C)
4 We’ve had more than enough
scorn from the arrogant
and contempt from the proud.(D)

Psalm 123
Common English Bible

Psalm 123

A pilgrimage song.

123 I raise my eyes to you—
    you who rule heaven.
2 Just as the eyes of servants attend to their masters’ hand,
    just as the eyes of a female servant attend to her mistress’ hand—
    that’s how our eyes attend to the Lord our God
    until he has mercy on us.

3 Have mercy on us, Lord! Have mercy
    because we’ve had more than enough shame.
4 We’ve had more than enough mockery from the self-confident,
    more than enough shame from the proud.
