1TO thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heaven. 2Behold, as the eyes of servants look towards their masters, and as the eyes of a maiden look towards her mistress; so also our eyes look towards the LORD our God, until he shall have mercy upon us. 3Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us; for we have heard a great deal of contempt. 4Our soul has enough of the scorn of mockers, and enough of the contempt of the proud. Holy Bible From The Ancient Eastern Texts: Aramaic Of The Peshitta by George M. Lamsa (1933) |
