| 1A Song of Ascents. Unto You I lift up my eyes, O You who dwell in the heavens. | 1A song of ascents. I lift up my eyes to You, the One enthroned in heaven. |
| 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. | 2As the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maidservant look to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes are on the LORD our God until He shows us mercy. |
| 3Have mercy on us, O LORD, have mercy on us! For we are exceedingly filled with contempt. | 3Have mercy on us, O LORD, have mercy, for we have endured much contempt. |
| 4Our soul is exceedingly filled With the scorn of those who are at ease, With the contempt of the proud. | 4We have endured much scorn from the arrogant, much contempt from the proud. |
