1I shall lift up my eyes Unto You who dwell in the heavens.

2See, as the eyes of servants Are toward the hand of their masters, As the eyes of a female servant Are toward the hand of her mistress, So are our eyes toward יהוה our Elohim, Until He shows favour to us.

3Show favour to us, O יהוה, show favour to us! For we are exceedingly filled with mockery.

4Our being is exceedingly filled With the scoffing of those who are at ease, With the mockery of the proud.
