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
Reliance on the Lord
1A song of ascents.
To you I raise my eyes,
to you enthroned in heaven.#Ps 25:15; 119:82; 141:8.
2Yes, like the eyes of servants
on the hand of their masters,
Like the eyes of a maid
on the hand of her mistress,
So our eyes are on the Lord our God,
till we are shown favor.
3Show us favor, Lord, show us favor,
for we have our fill of contempt.#Ps 44:13–14; Jb 12:4.
4Our souls are more than sated
with mockery from the insolent,
with contempt from the arrogant.
