Psalms 123:3 - Compare All Versions

Have mercy on us, LORD, have mercy on us, for we have endured no end of contempt.

Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us, for we have had more than enough of contempt.

Have mercy on us, LORD, have mercy, for we have had our fill of contempt.

Show us favor, LORD, show us favor, for we’ve had more than enough contempt.

Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: For we are exceedingly filled with contempt.

Have mercy on us, O LORD, have mercy on us! For we are exceedingly filled with contempt.

I look to you, heaven-dwelling God, look up to you for help. Like servants, alert to their master’s commands, like a maiden attending her lady, We’re watching and waiting, holding our breath, awaiting your word of mercy. Mercy, GOD, mercy! We’ve been kicked around long enough, Kicked in the teeth by complacent rich men, kicked when we’re down by arrogant brutes.

¶Be gracious to us, LORD, be gracious to us, For we have had much more than enough of contempt.

¶Be gracious to us, O LORD, be gracious and favorable toward us, For we are greatly filled with contempt.

Show us favor, O LORD, show us favor! For we have had our fill of humiliation, and then some.
