Psalms 123

1 A Song of the going up. To you my eyes are lifted up, even to you whose seat is in the heavens.

登聖殿歌。居住在諸天上的大主，我向你仰起我的眼目。

2 See! as the eyes of servants are turned to the hands of their masters, and the eyes of a servant-girl to her owner, so our eyes are waiting for the Lord our God, till he has mercy on us.

看，僕人的眼目，怎樣仰望主人的手，看，婢女的眼目，怎樣注視主婦的手；我們的眼目也就怎樣注視著上主，我們的天主，直到他憐憫我們才止。

3 Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us: for all men are looking down on us.

上主，求你矜憐，矜憐我們！因為我們已嘗盡了欺凌；

4 For long enough have men of pride made sport of our soul.

我們的心靈已經飽受得太多了：即驕傲人的欺凌，富貴人的恥笑。
