< Psalms 123 >
1 Yahweh, I look up toward you, up to heaven, from where you rule.
Pesem preizvrstna. K tebi dvigam oči svoje, o ti, ki sediš v nebesih!
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.
Glej, kakor hlapcev oči gledajo na roke gospodov svojih, kakor dekle oči na roke gospodinje svoje, tako oči naše v Gospoda, Boga našega, dokler nas ne pomilosti.
3 Yahweh, be very merciful [DOU] to us because [our enemies] have acted very contemptuously toward us.
Pomilosti nas, Gospod, pomilosti; ker dovolj je, siti smo zaničevanja.
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.
Dovolj je sita duša naša; tisto zasmehovanje onim pokojnim, tisto zaničevanje prevzetnim!
