A Song of Ascents.
[1] I lift up my eyes to you,you who sit in the heavens.
[2] Behold, 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 Yahweh, our God,
until he has mercy on us.
[3] Have mercy on us, Yahweh, have mercy on us,
for we have endured much contempt.
[4] Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scoffing of those who are at ease,
with the contempt of the proud.
King James Version
A Song H7892 of degrees. H4609
[1] Unto H413 thee lift I up H5375 H853 mine eyes, H5869O thou that dwellest H3427 in the heavens. H8064
[2] Behold, as the eyes H5869 of servants H5650
Look unto the hand H3027 of their masters, H113 and as the eyes H5869 of a maiden H8198 unto H413 the hand H3027 of her mistress; H1404
So H3651 our eyes H5869 wait upon the Lord H3068 our God, H430
Until H5704 that he have mercy H2603 upon us.
[3] Have mercy H2603 upon us, O Lord, H3068 have mercy H2603 upon us:
For we are exceedingly H7227 filled H7646 with contempt. H937
[4] Our soul H5315 is exceedingly H7227 filled H7646 with the scorning H3933 of those that are at ease, H7600
And with the contempt H937 of the proud. H3238 H1343 H1349
