< Psalms 123 >
1 A Song of degrees. Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens.
上行之詩。 坐在天上的主啊, 我向你舉目。
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,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 Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with 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 Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, [and] with the contempt of the proud.
我們被那些安逸人的譏誚 和驕傲人的藐視,已到極處。
