Псалтирь 123

1 К Тебе возведох очи мои, Живущему на небеси.

“A song of the steps, or the goings up.” To thee do I lift up mine eyes, O Thou who dwellest in the heavens!

2 Се, яко очи раб в руку господий своих, яко очи рабыни в руку госпожи своея: тако очи наши ко Господу Богу нашему, дондеже ущедрит ны.

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 do our eyes look to the LORD, our God, Until he have pity upon us.

3 Помилуй нас, Господи, помилуй нас, яко помногу исполнихомся уничижения:

Have mercy upon us, O LORD! have mercy upon us, For we are overwhelmed with contempt!

4 наипаче наполнися душа наша поношения гобзующих и уничижения гордых.

Our soul is filled to the full with the scorn of those who are at ease, And with the contempt of the proud.
