Psalm 123
ISV Parallel NLT [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
International Standard VersionNew Living Translation
1To you, who sit enthroned in heaven, I lift up my eyes.1I lift my eyes to you, O God, enthroned in heaven.
2Consider this: as the eyes of a servant focus on what his master provides, and as the eyes of a female servant focus on what her mistress provides, so our eyes focus on the LORD our God, until he has mercy on us.2We keep looking to the LORD our God for his mercy, just as servants keep their eyes on their master, as a slave girl watches her mistress for the slightest signal.
3Have mercy on us, LORD, have mercy, for we have had more than enough of contempt.3Have mercy on us, LORD, have mercy, for we have had our fill of contempt.
4Our lives overflow with scorn from those who live at ease, with contempt from those who are proud.4We have had more than our fill of the scoffing of the proud and the contempt of the arrogant.
