1 <V 122:1>A Canticle in steps. I have lifted up my eyes to you, who dwells in the heavens. To you I lift up my eyes, O you who are enthroned in the heavens! A song of ascents. I lift up my eyes to you, to you who sit enthroned in heaven.
2 <V 122:2>Behold, as the eyes of the servants are on the hands of their masters, as the eyes of the handmaid are on the hands of her mistress, so our eyes are upon the Lord our God, until he may be merciful to us. Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maidservant to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to the LORD our God, till he has mercy upon us. As the eyes of slaves look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a female slave look to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to the LORD our God, till he shows us his mercy.
3 <V 122:3>Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us. For we have been filled with utter disdain. Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us, for we have had more than enough of contempt. Have mercy on us, LORD, have mercy on us, for we have endured no end of contempt.
4 <V 122:4>For our soul has been greatly filled. We are the disgrace of those who have abundance and the disdain of the arrogant. Our soul has had more than enough of the scorn of those who are at ease, of the contempt of the proud. We have endured no end of ridicule from the arrogant, of contempt from the proud.
