Psalm 123

v.1

I lift up my eyes to you, to you whose throne is in heaven.

v.2

As the eyes of slaves look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maid look to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to the LORD our God, till he shows us his mercy.

v.3

Have mercy on us, O LORD, have mercy on us, for we have endured much contempt.

v.4

We have endured much ridicule from the proud, much contempt from the arrogant.
