भजनसंग्रह 123
1 तपाईंतिर म आफ्ना आँखा उचल्छु, तपाईं जो स्वर्गमा विराजमान हुनुहुन्छ ।
A Song of degrees. To thee I raise my eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens.
2 हेर, जसरी कमाराहरूका आँखाले आफ्ना मालिकको हाततिर हेर्छन्, कमारीहरूका आँखाले आफ्ना मालिक्नीको हाततिर हेर्छन्, त्यसरी नै हाम्रा आँखाले परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वरतिर हेर्छन्, जबसम्म उहाँले हामीलाई कृपा गर्नुहुन्न ।
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 हामीमाथि दया गर्नुहोस्, हे परमप्रभु, हामीमाथि दया गर्नुहोस्, किनकि हामी अपमानले भरिएका छौं ।
Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us; for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
4 अभिमानीहरूका गिल्ला र घमण्डीहरूका घृणाले भरिएको भन्दा पनि धेरै हामी भएका छौं ।
Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, [and] with the contempt of the proud.
