Tehillim 123

1 Unto Thee lift I up mine eyes,

O Thou that dwellest in Shomayim.

2Hinei, as the eyes of avadim look unto the yad adoneihem,

and as the eyes of a shifchah (maiden) unto the yad of her gevirah;

so our eyes wait upon Hashem Eloheinu,

until He have channun (favor, grace) upon us.

3Channenu Hashem , channenu;

for we are more than sated with buz (contempt) .

4Nafsheinu (our nefesh) is more than sated with the scorn of those that are at ease,

and with the buz (contempt) of the g'eiyonim (proud ones, arrogant ones) .
