Psalm 123


I lift up my eyes to You,

to You whose throne is in heaven.

As the eyes of slaves look to the hand of their master,

as the eyes of a maid look to the hand of her mistress,

so our eyes look to the Lord our God,

till He shows us mercy.


Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us,
for we have endured much contempt.

We have endured much ridicule from the proud,

much contempt from the arrogant.
