Psalm 123
A song for going up to worship.
1I look up to you,
to the one who sits enthroned in heaven.
2As servants depend on their masters,
as a maid depends on her mistress,
so we depend on the Lord our God
until he has pity on us.
3Have pity on us, O Lord.
Have pity on us
because we have suffered more than our share of contempt.
4We have suffered more than our share of ridicule
from those who are carefree.
We have suffered more than our share of contempt
from those who are arrogant.

Psalms 123
123
A Prayer for Mercy
1 LORD, I look up to you,
up to heaven, where you rule.
2As a servant depends on his master,
as a maid depends on her mistress,
so we will keep looking to you, O LORD our God,
until you have mercy on us.
3Be merciful to us, LORD, be merciful;
we have been treated with so much contempt.
4We have been mocked too long by the rich
and scorned by proud oppressors.
