| 1 | A Song of Ascents. Unto Thee I lift up mine eyes, O Thou that art enthroned 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 | Behold, as the eyes of servants unto the hand of their master, As the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; So our eyes look unto the LORD our God, Until He be gracious unto 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 | Be gracious unto us, O LORD, be gracious unto us; For we are full sated with contempt. | 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 | Our soul is full sated With the scorning of those that are at ease, And with the contempt of the proud oppressors. | 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. | |
