< Psalms 123 >
1 To thee do I lift up my eyes, O thou who sit in the heavens.
天にいますものよ我なんぢにむかひて目をあぐ
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.
みよ僕その主の手に目をそそぎ 婢女その主母の手に目をそそぐがごとく われらはわが神ヱホバに目をそそぎて そのわれを憐みたまはんことをまつ
3 Have mercy upon us, O Jehovah, have mercy upon us, for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
ねがはくはわれらを憐みたまヘ ヱホバよわれらを憐みたまへ そはわれらに軽侮はみちあふれぬ
4 Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scoffing of those who are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud.
おもひわづらひなきものの凌辱と たかぶるものの軽侮とはわれらの霊魂にみちあふれぬ
