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.
