< Psalms 123 >
1 [A Song of Ascents.] To you I do lift up my eyes, you who sit in the heavens.
上行之詩。 坐在天上的主啊, 我向你舉目。
2 Look, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress; so our eyes look to the LORD, our God, until he has mercy on 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 on us, LORD, have mercy on us, for we have endured much 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 scoffing of those who are at ease, 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。
