Psalms 123

1 A Song of the Ascents. Unto Thee I have lifted up mine eyes, O dweller in the heavens.

登聖殿歌。居住在諸天上的大主，我向你仰起我的眼目。

2 Lo, as eyes of men-servants [Are] unto the hand of their masters, As eyes of a maid-servant [Are] unto the hand of her mistress, So [are] our eyes unto Jehovah our God, Till that He doth favour us.

看，僕人的眼目，怎樣仰望主人的手，看，婢女的眼目，怎樣注視主婦的手；我們的眼目也就怎樣注視著上主，我們的天主，直到他憐憫我們才止。

3 Favour us, O Jehovah, favour us, For greatly have we been filled with contempt,

上主，求你矜憐，矜憐我們！因為我們已嘗盡了欺凌；

4 Greatly hath our soul been filled With the scorning of the easy ones, With the contempt of the arrogant!

我們的心靈已經飽受得太多了：即驕傲人的欺凌，富貴人的恥笑。
