Psalm 123

1 To you have I lifted up my eyes,

 you who dwell in the heavens.

2 Behold, like the eyes of slaves

 on the hand of their lords,

 like the eyes of a servant

 on the hand of her mistress,

 so our eyes are on the LORD our God,

 till he show us his mercy.

3 Have mercy on us, LORD, have mercy.

 We are filled with contempt.

 4 Indeed, all too full is our soul

 with the scorn of the arrogant,

 the disdain of the proud.
