Psalms 123

1Unto thee do I lift up mine eyes,

O thou that sittest in the heavens.

2Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their master,

As the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress;

So our eyes look unto the LORD our God, until he have mercy upon us.

3Have mercy upon us, O LORD , have mercy upon us:

For we are exceedingly filled with contempt.

4Our soul is exceedingly filled

With the scorning of those that are at ease,

And with the contempt of the proud.
