123 Sa iyo'y aking itinitingin ang mga mata ko, Oh sa iyo na nauupo sa mga langit.

Narito, kung paanong tumitingin ang mga mata ng mga alipin sa kamay ng kanilang panginoon, kung paano ang mga mata ng alilang babae sa kamay ng kaniyang panginoong babae; gayon tumitingin ang mga mata namin sa Panginoon naming Dios, hanggang sa siya'y maawa sa amin.

Maawa ka sa amin, Oh Panginoon, maawa ka sa amin: sapagka't kami ay lubhang lipos ng kadustaan.

Ang aming kaluluwa'y lubhang lipos ng duwahagi ng mga tiwasay. At ng paghamak ng palalo.

Prayer for Relief from Contempt

A Song of Ascents.

123 Unto You (A)I lift up my eyes,
O You (B)who dwell in the heavens.
Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their masters,
As the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress,
(C)So our eyes look to the Lord our God,
Until He has mercy on us.

Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us!
For we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
Our soul is exceedingly filled
With the scorn of those who are at ease,
With the contempt of the proud.

Psalm 123

A song of ascents.

I lift up my eyes to you,
    to you who sit enthroned(A) in heaven.
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.

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