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。
Psalm 123 A song of ascents.
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.
