< Psalms 123 >

1 Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens.
Nyanyian ziarah. Kepada-Mu aku melayangkan mataku, ya Engkau yang bersemayam di sorga.
2 Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters, and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes wait upon YHWH our Elohim, until that he have mercy upon us.
Lihat, seperti mata para hamba laki-laki memandang kepada tangan tuannya, seperti mata hamba perempuan memandang kepada tangan nyonyanya, demikianlah mata kita memandang kepada TUHAN, Allah kita, sampai Ia mengasihani kita.
3 Have mercy upon us, O YHWH, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
Kasihanilah kami, ya TUHAN, kasihanilah kami, sebab kami sudah cukup kenyang dengan penghinaan;
4 Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud.
jiwa kami sudah cukup kenyang dengan olok-olok orang-orang yang merasa aman, dengan penghinaan orang-orang yang sombong.
