Psalm 123, the Song of Decrees.
Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heaven.
Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters, and as the eyes
of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress, so our eyes wait upon the Lord our God,
until that He have mercy upon us.
Have mercy upon us, O Lord, have mercy upon us, for we are exceedingly filled
with contempt.
Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease,
and with the contempt of the proud.
