Psalm 123:1 To you I lift up my eyes, O you who are enthroned in the heavens!

Psalm 123:2 Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to the LORD our God, till he have mercy upon us.

Psalm 123:3 Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us, for we have had more than enough of contempt.

Psalm 123:4 Too long our soul has been sated with the scorn of those who are at ease, the contempt of the proud.
