Psalm 123 | Liturgical Calendar

1

To you I lift up my eyes, *

to you enthroned in the heavens.

2

As the eyes of servants look to the hand of their masters, *

and the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress,

3

So our eyes look to the Lord our God, *

until he show us his mercy.

4

Have mercy upon us, O Lord, have mercy, *

for we have had more than enough of contempt,

5

Too much of the scorn of the indolent rich, *

and of the derision of the proud.
