Psalmi 123

1 Hodočasnička pjesma. Oči svoje uzdižem k tebi koji u nebesima prebivaš.

A Song of Ascents. Unto thee do I lift up mine eyes, O thou that sittest in the heavens.

2 Evo, kao što su uprte oči slugu u ruke gospodara i oči sluškinje u ruke gospodarice tako su oči naše uprte u Jahvu, Boga našega, dok nam se ne smiluje.

Behold, 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.

3 Smiluj nam se, Jahve, smiluj se nama jer se do grla nasitismo prezira.

Have mercy upon us, O Jehovah, have mercy upon us; For we are exceedingly filled with contempt.

4 Presita nam je duša podsmijeha obijesnih, poruga oholih.

Our soul is exceedingly filled With the scoffing of those that are at ease, And with the contempt of the proud.
