< Psalms 123 >

1 To thee have I lifted up my eyes, who dwellest in heaven.
K tebi povzdigujem svoje oči, oh ti, ki prebivaš v nebesih.
2 Behold as the eyes of the servants are on the hands of their masters, As the eyes of the handmaid are on the hands of her mistress: so are our eyes unto the Lord our God, until he have mercy on us.
Glej, kakor oči služabnikov gledajo k roki svojih gospodarjev in kakor oči dekle k roki svoje gospodarice, tako naše oči čakajo na Gospoda, našega Boga, dokler se nas ne usmili.
3 Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us: for we are greatly filled with contempt.
Usmili se nas, oh Gospod, usmili se nas, kajti silno smo nasičeni z zaničevanjem.
4 For our soul is greatly filled: we are a reproach to the rich, and contempt to the proud.
Naša duša je silno nasičena s preziranjem tistih, ki so ošabni in z zaničevanjem ponosnih.
