Holman Christian Standard BibleKing James Bible
1A song of ascents. I lift my eyes to You, the One enthroned in heaven. 1A Song of degrees. Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens.
2Like a servant's eyes on his master's hand, like a servant girl's eyes on her mistress's hand, so our eyes are on the LORD our God until He shows us favor. 2Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters, and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes wait upon the LORD our God, until that he have mercy upon us.
3Show us favor, LORD, show us favor, for we've had more than enough contempt. 3Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
4We've had more than enough scorn from the arrogant and contempt from the proud. 4Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud.
