Psalms 123

Psalm 123

A pilgrimage song.

1I raise my eyes to you—

you who rule heaven.

2Just as the eyes of servants attend to their masters’ hand,

just as the eyes of a female servant attend to her mistress’ hand—

that’s how our eyes attend to the LORD our God

until he has mercy on us.

3Have mercy on us, LORD! Have mercy

because we’ve had more than enough shame.

4We’ve had more than enough mockery from the self-confident,

more than enough shame from the proud.

Psalm 123

123

Our Eyes Look to the Lord Our God

A Song of #[See Ps. 120, title]Ascents.

1To you I #Ps. 121:1; [Ps. 141:8]; See Ps. 25:15 lift up my eyes,

O you who are #See Ps. 2:4enthroned in the heavens!

2Behold, as the eyes of servants

look to the hand of their master,

as the eyes of a maidservant

to the hand of her mistress,

so our eyes look to the Lord our God,

till he has mercy upon us.

3 # Ps. 4:1 Have mercy upon us, O Lord, have mercy upon us,

for we have had more than enough of #[Neh. 4:4]contempt.

4Our soul has had more than enough

of #[Neh. 2:19] the scorn of #Isa. 32:9, 11; Amos 6:1 those who are at ease,

of the contempt of #See Ps. 119:51the proud.
