< Psalms 123 >
1 A Song of the Ascents. Unto Thee I have lifted up mine eyes, O dweller in the heavens.
上行之詩。 坐在天上的主啊, 我向你舉目。
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.
看哪,僕人的眼睛怎樣望主人的手, 使女的眼睛怎樣望主母的手, 我們的眼睛也照樣望耶和華-我們的上帝, 直到他憐憫我們。
3 Favour us, O Jehovah, favour us, For greatly have we been filled with contempt,
耶和華啊,求你憐憫我們,憐憫我們! 因為我們被藐視,已到極處。
4 Greatly hath our soul been filled With the scorning of the easy ones, With the contempt of the arrogant!
我們被那些安逸人的譏誚 和驕傲人的藐視,已到極處。
