I lift up my eyes to you, to you who sit enthroned in heaven.
2
As the eyes of slaves look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a female slave look to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to the Lord our God, till he shows us his mercy.
3
Have mercy on us, Lord , have mercy on us, for we have endured no end of contempt.
4
We have endured no end of ridicule from the arrogant, of contempt from the proud.
