Psalms, 123

A Song of the Ascents.

1 To you I have raised my eyes, O You who are dwelling in the heavens.

2 Look! As the eyes of servants are toward the hand of their master,*1 As the eyes of a maidservant are toward the hand of her mistress, So our eyes are toward Jehovah our God Until he shows us favor.

  1. “Their master.” Heb., ʼadhoh·neh·hemʹ, pl. of ʼa·dhohnʹ, to denote excellence. See Ge 39:2 ftn.

3 Show us favor, O Jehovah, show us favor; For to an abundance we have been glutted with contempt.

4 Abundantly our soul has been glutted with the derision of those who are at ease, Of the contempt on the part of the arrogant ones.
