123:1 A Song of degrees. To thee I raise my eyes, O thou that
dwellest in the heavens.
123:2 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.
123:3 Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us; for we are
exceedingly filled with contempt.
123:4 Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those
that are at ease, [and] with the contempt of the proud.
