A Song of Ascents.

1Unto thee do I lift up mine eyes,

O thou that sittest in the heavens.

2Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their master,

As the eyes of a maid unto the hand of her mistress;

So our eyes look unto Jehovah our God,

Until he have mercy upon us.

3Have mercy upon us, O Jehovah, have mercy upon us;

For we are exceedingly filled with contempt.

4Our soul is exceedingly filled

With the scoffing of those that are at ease,

And with the contempt of the proud.
