祈求上帝怜悯

上圣殿朝圣之诗。

123 在天上做王的耶和华啊!
我仰望你。
我们要仰望我们的上帝耶和华,
如同仆人仰望主人、婢女仰望主母,
一直到蒙祂怜悯。
耶和华啊,
求你怜悯我们,求你怜悯我们,
因为我们饱受鄙视。
我们饱受富足人的嘲弄、骄傲人的鄙视。

祈求上帝憐憫

上聖殿朝聖之詩。

123 在天上做王的耶和華啊!
我仰望你。
我們要仰望我們的上帝耶和華,
如同僕人仰望主人、婢女仰望主母,
一直到蒙祂憐憫。
耶和華啊,
求你憐憫我們,求你憐憫我們,
因為我們飽受鄙視。
我們飽受富足人的嘲弄、驕傲人的鄙視。

Prayer for Relief from Contempt

A Song of Ascents.

123 Unto You (A)I lift up my eyes,
O You (B)who dwell in the heavens.
Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their masters,
As the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress,
(C)So our eyes look to the Lord our God,
Until He has mercy on us.

Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us!
For we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
Our soul is exceedingly filled
With the scorn of those who are at ease,
With the contempt of the proud.

Our Eyes Look to the Lord Our God

A Song of (A)Ascents.

123 To you I (B)lift up my eyes,
    O you who are (C)enthroned in the heavens!
Behold, as the eyes of servants
    look to the hand of their master,
as the eyes of a maidservant
    to the hand of her mistress,
so our eyes look to the Lord our God,
    till he has mercy upon us.

(D)Have mercy upon us, O Lord, have mercy upon us,
    for we have had more than enough of (E)contempt.
Our soul has had more than enough
    of (F)the scorn of (G)those who are at ease,
    of the contempt of (H)the proud.
