< Mazmur 123 >

1 Nyanyian ziarah. Kepada-Mu aku melayangkan mataku, ya Engkau yang bersemayam di sorga.
A Song of degrees. To thee I lift up my eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens.
2 Lihat, seperti mata para hamba laki-laki memandang kepada tangan tuannya, seperti mata hamba perempuan memandang kepada tangan nyonyanya, demikianlah mata kita memandang kepada TUHAN, Allah kita, sampai Ia mengasihani kita.
Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their masters, and as the eyes of a maiden to the hand of her mistress; so our eyes wait upon the LORD our God, until he shall have mercy upon us.
3 Kasihanilah kami, ya TUHAN, kasihanilah kami, sebab kami sudah cukup kenyang dengan penghinaan;
Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
4 jiwa kami sudah cukup kenyang dengan olok-olok orang-orang yang merasa aman, dengan penghinaan orang-orang yang sombong.
Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud.
