123
1 “A song of the steps, or the goings up.” To thee do I lift up mine eyes, O Thou who dwellest in the heavens! 2 Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their masters, And as the eyes of a maiden to the hand of her mistress, So do our eyes look to the LORD, our God, Until he have pity upon us. 3 Have mercy upon us, O LORD! have mercy upon us, For we are overwhelmed with contempt! 4 Our soul is filled to the full with the scorn of those who are at ease, And with the contempt of the proud.
