1
> To you I do lift up my eyes , You who sit in the heavens .
A song of ascents. I lift up my eyes to You , the One enthroned in heaven .
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 Yahweh, our God , Until he has mercy on us.
As the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maidservant look to the hand of her mistress , so our eyes are on the LORD our God until He shows us mercy .
3
Have mercy on us, Yahweh , have mercy on us , For we have endured much contempt.
Have mercy on us, O LORD , have mercy, for we have endured much contempt.
4
Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scoffing of those who are at ease , With the contempt of the proud.
We have endured much scorn from the arrogant , much contempt from the proud.
