1A Song of Ascents. Unto You I lift up my eyes, O You who dwell in the heavens. | 1A Song of Ascents. To You I lift up my eyes, O You who are enthroned in the heavens! |
2Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their masters, As the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress, So our eyes look to the LORD our God, Until He has mercy on us. | 2Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, As the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress, So our eyes look to the LORD our God, Until He is gracious to us. |
3Have mercy on us, O LORD, have mercy on us! For we are exceedingly filled with contempt. | 3Be gracious to us, O LORD, be gracious to us, For we are greatly filled with contempt. |
4Our soul is exceedingly filled With the scorn of those who are at ease, With the contempt of the proud. | 4Our soul is greatly filled With the scoffing of those who are at ease, And with the contempt of the proud. |
