Psalms 123
123
A Prayer for Mercy
A song of the stairway
1O God-Enthroned in heaven, I lift my eyes toward you in worship.
2The way I love you
is like the way a servant wants to please his master,
the way a maid waits for the orders of her mistress.
We look to you, our God, with passionate longing
to please you and discover more of your mercy and grace.
3-4For we’ve had more than our fill of this scoffing and scorn—
this mistreatment by the wealthy elite.
Lord, show us your mercy!
Lord, show us your grace!

Reliance on the Lord
1A song of ascents.
To you I raise my eyes,
to you enthroned in heaven.#Ps 25:15; 119:82; 141:8.
2Yes, like the eyes of servants
on the hand of their masters,
Like the eyes of a maid
on the hand of her mistress,
So our eyes are on the Lord our God,
till we are shown favor.
3Show us favor, Lord, show us favor,
for we have our fill of contempt.#Ps 44:13–14; Jb 12:4.
4Our souls are more than sated
with mockery from the insolent,
with contempt from the arrogant.
