Psalm 123:2-4
New English Translation
2 Look, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master,
as the eyes of a female servant look to the hand of her mistress,[a]
so our eyes will look to the Lord, our God, until he shows us favor.
3 Show us favor, O Lord, show us favor!
For we have had our fill of humiliation, and then some.[b]
4 We have had our fill[c]
of the taunts of the self-assured,
of the contempt of the proud.
