Psalm 123
ESV Parallel HCSB [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
English Standard VersionHolman Christian Standard Bible
1To you I lift up my eyes, O you who are enthroned in the heavens!1A song of ascents. I lift my eyes to You, the One enthroned in heaven.
2Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maidservant to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to the LORD our God, till he has mercy upon us.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.
3Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us, for we have had more than enough of contempt.3Show us favor, LORD, show us favor, for we've had more than enough contempt.
4Our soul has had more than enough of the scorn of those who are at ease, of the contempt of the proud.4We've had more than enough scorn from the arrogant and contempt from the proud.
