Psalmi 123

1 K tebi povzdigujem svoje oči, oh ti, ki prebivaš v nebesih.

A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. I have lifted up my eyes to You, O dweller in the heavens.

2 Glej, kakor oči služabnikov gledajo k roki svojih gospodarjev in kakor oči dekle k roki svoje gospodarice, tako naše oči čakajo na Gospoda, našega Boga, dokler se nas ne usmili.

Behold, as eyes of menservants [Are] to the hand of their masters, As eyes of a maidservant [Are] to the hand of her mistress, So [are] our eyes to our God YHWH, Until He favors us.

3 Usmili se nas, oh Gospod, usmili se nas, kajti silno smo nasičeni z zaničevanjem.

Favor us, O YHWH, favor us, For we have been greatly filled with contempt,

4 Naša duša je silno nasičena s preziranjem tistih, ki so ošabni in z zaničevanjem ponosnih.

Our soul has been greatly filled With the scorning of the easy ones, With the contempt of the arrogant!
