Psalm 123 | New International Reader’s Version

A song for those who go up to Jerusalem to worship the Lord.

1 I look up and pray to you. Your throne is in heaven. 2 Slaves depend on their masters. A female slave depends on the woman she works for. In the same way, we depend on the LORD our God. We wait for him to have mercy on us. 3 LORD, have mercy on us. Have mercy on us, because people haven’t stopped making fun of us. 4 We have had to put up with a lot from those who are proud. They were always laughing at us.

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.
