< Psalms 123 >

1 A song for pilgrims going up to Jerusalem. I look up to you, the one who rules from heaven.
上行之詩。 坐在天上的主啊, 我向你舉目。
2 Just as servants look to their master, or a maid looks to her mistress, so we keep our eyes on you, Lord our God, waiting for you to be merciful to us.
看哪,僕人的眼睛怎樣望主人的手, 使女的眼睛怎樣望主母的手, 我們的眼睛也照樣望耶和華-我們的上帝, 直到他憐憫我們。
3 Please have mercy on us, Lord, have mercy. We've had enough of people's contempt.
耶和華啊,求你憐憫我們,憐憫我們! 因為我們被藐視,已到極處。
4 We've had more than enough of the scorn of the proud, and the contempt of the arrogant.
我們被那些安逸人的譏誚 和驕傲人的藐視,已到極處。
