Psalm 123
World English Bible

A Song of Ascents.

123 I lift up my eyes to you,
    you who sit in the heavens.
2 Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master,
    as the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress;
    so our eyes look to Yahweh, our God,
    until he has mercy on us.
3 Have mercy on us, Yahweh, have mercy on us,
    for we have endured much contempt.
4 Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scoffing of those who are at ease,
    with the contempt of the proud.

Psalm 123
Christian Standard Bible

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)
