Psalms 123

1The godly profess their confidence in God, 3and pray to be delivered from contempt.


0 aA Song of degrees.

1 UNTO bthee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that cdwellest in the heavens.

2 Behold, das the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters, and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; eso our eyes wait upon the LORD our God, until that he have mercy upon us.

3 fHave mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with gcontempt.

4 hOur soul is exceedingly filled with the iscorning of jthose that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud.
