Psalms 123

1 Yahweh, I look up toward you, up to heaven, from where you rule.

Ó, Guð, þú sem ríkir á himnum, ég hef augu mín til þín.

2 Like servants ask [IDM] their masters [for what they need] and like maids ask t their mistresses [for what they need], we ask you, Yahweh our God, [for what we need], and we ask you to be merciful to us.

Við horfum til Drottins Guðs, þráum miskunn hans og náð, rétt eins og þjónninn mænir á húsbónda sinn og þernan á húsmóður sína.

3 Yahweh, be very merciful [DOU] to us because [our enemies] have acted very contemptuously toward us.

Miskunna okkur, Drottinn, miskunna okkur.

4 Rich people have made fun of us for a long time, and proud [people] who have (oppressed/acted cruelly toward) us have acted toward us as though we were worthless.

Við höfum fengið nóg af háði og spotti hinna hrokafullu.
