< Psalms 123 >
1 A Song of degrees. Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens.
上行之诗。 坐在天上的主啊, 我向你举目。
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 the LORD our God, until that he have mercy upon us.
看哪,仆人的眼睛怎样望主人的手, 使女的眼睛怎样望主母的手, 我们的眼睛也照样望耶和华—我们的 神, 直到他怜悯我们。
3 Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
耶和华啊,求你怜悯我们,怜悯我们! 因为我们被藐视,已到极处。
4 Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, [and] with the contempt of the proud.
我们被那些安逸人的讥诮 和骄傲人的藐视,已到极处。
