Psalms 123

GW

NIV

1 I look up to you, to the one who sits enthroned in heaven.
1 I lift up my eyes to you, to you who sit enthroned in heaven.
2 As 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.
2 As the eyes of slaves look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a female slave look to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to the LORD our God, till he shows us his mercy.
3 Have pity on us, O LORD. Have pity on us because we have suffered more than our share of contempt.
3 Have mercy on us, LORD, have mercy on us, for we have endured no end of contempt.
4 We 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.
4 We have endured no end of ridicule from the arrogant, of contempt from the proud.
