Psalms 123

1 To you lift I up my eyes, O you that dwell in the heavens.

Orin fún ìgòkè. Ìwọ ní mo gbé ojú mí sókè sí, ìwọ tí ń gbé inú ọ̀run.

2 Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their masters, and as the eyes of a maiden to the hand of her mistress; so our eyes wait on the LORD our God, until that he have mercy on us.

Kíyèsi, bí ojú àwọn ìránṣẹ́kùnrin ti máa ń wo ọwọ́ àwọn baba wọn, àti bí ojú ìránṣẹ́bìnrin ti máa ń wo ọwọ́ ìyá rẹ̀ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ojú wa ń wo Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa, títí yóò fi ṣàánú fún wa.

3 Have mercy on us, O LORD, have mercy on us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.

Olúwa, ṣàánú fún wa, ṣàánú fún wa; nítorí tí a kún fún ẹ̀gàn púpọ̀púpọ̀.

4 Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud.

Ọkàn wa kún púpọ̀ fún ẹ̀gàn àwọn onírera, àti fún ẹ̀gàn àwọn agbéraga.
