Psalm 123 | English Standard Version

Our Eyes Look to the Lord Our God

1 A Song of Ascents. To you I lift up my eyes, O you who are enthroned in the heavens! 2 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. 3 Have mercy upon us, O Lord, have mercy upon us, for we have had more than enough of contempt. 4 Our soul has had more than enough of the scorn of those who are at ease, of the contempt of the proud.

Aufblick zu Gott

1 Ein Wallfahrtslied. Ich erhebe meine Augen zu dir, der du thronst im Himmel. 2 Siehe, wie die Augen der Knechte auf die Hand ihres Herrn, wie die Augen der Magd auf die Hand ihrer Herrin, so sind unsere Augen erhoben zum HERRN, unserem Gott, bis er uns gnädig ist. 3 Sei uns gnädig, HERR, sei uns gnädig! Denn übersatt sind wir von Verachtung, 4 vom Spott der Selbstsicheren ist übersatt unsere Seele, von der Verachtung durch die Stolzen.
