Psalm 123
Ad te levavi oculos meos
The Book of Common Prayer (1979) · 5 verses
- 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.
