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!

PSALM 123.
1If it had not been that the Lord was with us, let Israel now say:
2If it had not been that the Lord was with us, When men rose up against us
3perhaps they had swallowed us up alive. When their fury was enkindled against us,
4perhaps the waters had swallowed us up.
5Our soul hath passed through a torrent: perhaps our soul had passed through a water insupportable.
6Blessed be the Lord, who hath not given us to be a prey to their teeth.
7Our soul hath been delivered as a sparrow out of the snare of the followers. The snare is broken, and we are delivered.
8Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
