< Psalms 123 >

1 Yahweh, I look up toward you, up to heaven, from where you rule.
Orin fún ìgòkè. Ìwọ ní mo gbé ojú mí sókè sí, ìwọ tí ń gbé inú ọ̀run.
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.
Kíyèsi, bí ojú àwọn ìránṣẹ́kùnrin ti máa ń wo ọwọ́ àwọn baba wọn, àti bí ojú ìránṣẹ́bìnrin ti máa ń wo ọwọ́ ìyá rẹ̀ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ojú wa ń wo Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa, títí yóò fi ṣàánú fún wa.
3 Yahweh, be very merciful [DOU] to us because [our enemies] have acted very contemptuously toward us.
Olúwa, ṣàánú fún wa, ṣàánú fún wa; nítorí tí a kún fún ẹ̀gàn púpọ̀púpọ̀.
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.
Ọkàn wa kún púpọ̀ fún ẹ̀gàn àwọn onírera, àti fún ẹ̀gàn àwọn agbéraga.
