Holman Christian Standard Bible

Psalm 123

Looking for God’s Favor

A song of ascents.

1 I lift my eyes to You,
the One enthroned in heaven.(A)
2 Like a servant’s eyes on his master’s hand,
like a servant girl’s eyes on her mistress’s hand,
so our eyes are on the Lord our God
until He shows us favor.(B)

3 Show us favor, Lord, show us favor,
for we’ve had more than enough contempt.(C)
4 We’ve had more than enough
scorn from the arrogant
and contempt from the proud.(D)

Psalm 123
New International Version

Psalm 123

A song of ascents.

1 I lift up my eyes to you,
    to you who sit enthroned(A) in heaven.
2 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(B) our God,
    till he shows us his mercy.

3 Have mercy on us, Lord, have mercy on us,
    for we have endured no end of contempt.
4 We have endured no end
    of ridicule from the arrogant,
    of contempt from the proud.
