1. A song of ascents. I lift my eyes to You, the One enthroned in heaven.

1. A Song H7892 of degrees H4609 . Unto H413 thee lift I up H5375 H853 mine eyes H5869 , O thou that dwellest H3427 in the heavens H8064 .
|
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.
|
2. Behold H2009 , as the eyes H5869 of servants H5650 look unto H413 the hand H3027 of their masters H113 , and as the eyes H5869 of a maiden H8198 unto H413 the hand H3027 of her mistress H1404 ; so H3651 our eyes H5869 wait upon H413 the LORD H3068 our God H430 , until H5704 that he have mercy upon H7945 H2603 us.
|
3. Show us favor, LORD, show us favor, for we've had more than enough contempt.
|
3. Have mercy upon H2603 us , O LORD H3068 , have mercy upon H2603 us: for H3588 we are exceedingly H7227 filled H7646 with contempt H937 .
|
4. We've had more than enough scorn from the arrogant and contempt from the proud.
|
4. Our soul H5315 is exceedingly H7227 filled H7646 with the scorning H3933 of those that are at ease H7600 , and with the contempt H937 of the proud H1349 .
