| 1 | A song of ascents. I look up toward you, the one enthroned in heaven. | 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 | Look, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a female servant look to the hand of her mistress, so my eyes will look to the LORD, our God, until he shows us favor. | 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 | Show us favor, O LORD, show us favor! For we have had our fill of humiliation, and then some. | 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 | We have had our fill of the taunts of the self-assured, of the contempt of the proud. | 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. | |
