Prayer is the burden of a sigh, The falling of a tear, The upward glancing of an eye When none but God is near. - James Montgomery -
詩篇123
- (上行之詩。)坐在天上的主啊,我向你舉目。
- 看哪,僕人的眼睛怎樣望主人的手,使女的眼睛怎樣望主母的手,我們的眼睛也照樣望耶和華─我們的神,直到他憐憫我們。
- 耶和華啊,求你憐憫我們,憐憫我們!因為我們被藐視,已到極處。
- 我們被那些安逸人的譏誚和驕傲人的藐視,已到極處。
1 I lift up my eyes to you, to you whose throne is in heaven.
2 As the eyes of slaves look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maid 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, O LORD, have mercy on us, for we have endured much contempt.
4 We have endured much ridicule from the proud, much contempt from the arrogant.
