Psalms 123

1 A song of ascents. To you I lift up my eyes, you who are enthroned in the heavens.

Pesem preizvrstna. K tebi dvigam oči svoje, o ti, ki sediš v nebesih!

2 See, as the eyes of servants look to their master's hand, as the eyes of a maid look to her mistress's hand, so our eyes look to Yahweh our God until he has mercy on 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 Have mercy on us, Yahweh, have mercy on us, for we are filled with humiliation.

Pomilosti nas, Gospod, pomilosti; ker dovolj je, siti smo zaničevanja.

4 We are more than full of the scoffing of the insolent and with the contempt of the proud.

Dovolj je sita duša naša; tisto zasmehovanje onim pokojnim, tisto zaničevanje prevzetnim!
