Psalm 123:1-3

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

Psalm 123

Supplication for Mercy

A Song of Ascents.

¹To you I lift up my eyes,
    O you who are enthroned in the heavens!
²As the eyes of servants
    look to the hand of their master,
as the eyes of a maid
    to the hand of her mistress,
so our eyes look to the Lord our God,
    until he has mercy upon us.

³Have mercy upon us, O Lord, have mercy upon us,
for we have had more than enough of contempt.
