Zaburi 123

1 Nakuinulia macho yangu, wewe uketiye mbinguni.

`The song of grecis. To thee Y haue reisid myn iyen; that dwellist in heuenes.

2 Tazama, kama vile macho ya watumishi watazamapo kwenye mkono wa Bwana wao, na kama macho ya mjakazi yatazamapo mkono wa bibi yake, ndivyo hivyo macho yetu yanamtazama Yahwe mpaka atakapo tuhurumia.

Lo! as the iyen of seruauntis; ben in the hondis of her lordis. As the iyen of the handmaide ben in the hondis of her ladi; so oure iyen ben to oure Lord God, til he haue mercy on vs.

3 Ee Yahwe, utuhurumie, kwa maana tunadhalilishwa sana.

Lord, haue thou merci on vs, haue thou merci on vs; for we ben myche fillid with dispisyng.

4 Tumeshibishwa mzaha wa wenye kiburi na dharau ya wenye majivuno.

For oure soule is myche fillid; we ben schenschipe to hem that ben abundaunte with richessis, and dispising to proude men.
