< 詩篇 123 >
Yahweh, I look up toward you, up to heaven, from where you rule.
2 看哪,僕人的眼睛怎樣望主人的手, 使女的眼睛怎樣望主母的手, 我們的眼睛也照樣望耶和華-我們的上帝, 直到他憐憫我們。
Like servants ask [IDM] their masters [for what they need] and like maids ask t their mistresses [for what they need], we ask you, Yahweh our God, [for what we need], and we ask you to be merciful to us.
3 耶和華啊,求你憐憫我們,憐憫我們! 因為我們被藐視,已到極處。
Yahweh, be very merciful [DOU] to us because [our enemies] have acted very contemptuously toward us.
4 我們被那些安逸人的譏誚 和驕傲人的藐視,已到極處。
Rich people have made fun of us for a long time, and proud [people] who have (oppressed/acted cruelly toward) us have acted toward us as though we were worthless.
