Psalm 123

Ad te levavi oculos meos

The Book of Common Prayer (1979) · 5 verses

  1. 1

    To you I lift up my eyes, *
    to you enthroned in the heavens.

  2. 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. 3

    So our eyes look to the LORD our God, *
    until he show us his mercy.

  4. 4

    Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy, *
    for we have had more than enough of contempt,

  5. 5

    Too much of the scorn of the indolent rich, *
    and of the derision of the proud.
