New King James Version

New Living Translation

  • Prayer for Relief from Contempt

    A Song of Ascents.

    Unto You I lift up my eyes,
    O You who dwell in the heavens.
  • A song for pilgrims ascending to Jerusalem.

    I lift my eyes to you,
    O God, enthroned in heaven.
  • 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,
    So our eyes look to the Lord our God,
    Until He has mercy on us.
  • We keep looking to the LORD our God for his mercy,
    just as servants keep their eyes on their master,
    as a slave girl watches her mistress for the slightest signal.
  • Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us!
    For we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
  • Have mercy on us, LORD, have mercy,
    for we have had our fill of contempt.
  • Our soul is exceedingly filled
    With the scorn of those who are at ease,
    With the contempt of the proud.
  • We have had more than our fill of the scoffing of the proud
    and the contempt of the arrogant.
