Psalm 123 :: American Standard Version (ASV)

An Expectant Prayer for Jehovah's Help.

Psa 123:1

Psa 123:1
A Song of Ascents.
Unto thee do I lift up mine eyes,
O thou that sittest in the heavens.

Psa 123:2

Psa 123:2
Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their master,
As the eyes of a maid unto the hand of her mistress;
So our eyes look unto Jehovah our God,
Until he have mercy upon us.

Psa 123:3

Psa 123:3
Have mercy upon us, O Jehovah, have mercy upon us;
For we are exceedingly filled with contempt.

Psa 123:4

Psa 123:4
Our soul is exceedingly filled
With the scoffing of those that are at ease,
And with the contempt of the proud.
