Psalms 123

Clementine Vulgate · Berean Standard Bible

123:1
Canticum graduum. Nisi quia Dominus erat in nobis, dicat nunc Israël,
A song of ascents. I lift up my eyes to You, the One enthroned in heaven.
123:2
nisi quia Dominus erat in nobis : cum exsurgerent homines in nos,
As the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maidservant look to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes are on the LORD our God until He shows us mercy.
123:3
forte vivos deglutissent nos ; cum irasceretur furor eorum in nos,
Have mercy on us, O LORD, have mercy, for we have endured much contempt.
123:4
forsitan aqua absorbuisset nos ;
We have endured much scorn from the arrogant, much contempt from the proud.
