< Psalms 123 >

1 To thee have I lifted up my eyes, who dwellest in heaven.
I A oe no wau e leha aku nei i ko'u mau maka, E ka mea e noho la ma ka lani.
2 Behold as the eyes of the servants are on the hands of their masters, As the eyes of the handmaid are on the hands of her mistress: so are our eyes unto the Lord our God, until he have mercy on us.
Aia hoi, e like me na maka o na kauwakane, I ka lima o ko lakou haku, E like hoi me na maka o ke kauwawahine, I ka lima o kona haku wahine; Pela no ko kakou maka ia Iehova i ko kakou Akua, A aloha mai oia ia makou.
3 Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us: for we are greatly filled with contempt.
E aloha mai oe ia makou, o Iehova, E aloha mai oe ia makou; No ka mea, ua ana loa makou i ka hoowahawahaia.
4 For our soul is greatly filled: we are a reproach to the rich, and contempt to the proud.
Ua ana loa ko makou uhane i ka hoomaewaewa ana o ka poe hookano, A me ka hoowahawaha ana o ka poe hookiekie.
