Psalms 123 — WEB

A Song of Ascents.

123I lift up my eyes to you,you who sit in the heavens.²Behold, 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 the LORD, our God,
until he has mercy on us.³Have mercy on us, LORD, have mercy on us,for we have endured much contempt.⁴Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scoffing of those who are at ease,with the contempt of the proud.
