Psalms 123

1 To thee do I lift up my eyes, O thou who sit in the heavens.

I A oe no wau e leha aku nei i ko'u mau maka, E ka mea e noho la ma ka lani.

2 Behold, as the eyes of servants to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes are to Jehovah our God, until he has mercy upon us.

Aia hoi, e like me na maka o na kauwakane, I ka lima o ko lakou haku, E like hoi me na maka o ke kauwawahine, I ka lima o kona haku wahine; Pela no ko kakou maka ia Iehova i ko kakou Akua, A aloha mai oia ia makou.

3 Have mercy upon us, O Jehovah, have mercy upon us, for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.

E aloha mai oe ia makou, o Iehova, E aloha mai oe ia makou; No ka mea, ua ana loa makou i ka hoowahawahaia.

4 Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scoffing of those who are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud.

Ua ana loa ko makou uhane i ka hoomaewaewa ana o ka poe hookano, A me ka hoowahawaha ana o ka poe hookiekie.
