Psalms 123

1 A song of ascents. I lift up my eyes to You, the One enthroned in heaven.

Nyanyian ziarah. Aku menengadah kepada-Mu ya TUHAN yang memerintah di surga.

2 As the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maidservant look to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes are on the LORD our God until He shows us mercy.

Seperti seorang hamba bergantung kepada tuannya, dan seorang hamba perempuan kepada nyonyanya, demikianlah kami menantikan Engkau, ya TUHAN, Allah kami, sampai Engkau mengasihani kami.

3 Have mercy on us, O LORD, have mercy, for we have endured much contempt.

Kasihanilah kami, ya TUHAN, kasihanilah kami, sebab kami sudah terlalu banyak dihina.

4 We have endured much scorn from the arrogant, much contempt from the proud.

Sudah cukup kami diolok-olok orang kaya, dan dicemooh orang-orang yang sombong.
