Psalms 123

إِلَيْكَ رَفَعْتُ عَيْنَيَّ يَا سَاكِنًا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ.

Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens.

هُوَذَا كَمَا أَنَّ عُيُونَ الْعَبِيدِ نَحْوَ أَيْدِي سَادَتِهِمْ، كَمَا أَنَّ عَيْنَيِ الْجَارِيَةِ نَحْوَ يَدِ سَيِّدَتِهَا، هكَذَا عُيُونُنَا نَحْوَ الرَّبِّ إِلهِنَا حَتَّى يَتَرَأََّفَ عَلَيْنَا.

Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters, and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes wait upon the LORD our God, until that he have mercy upon us.

ارْحَمْنَا يَا رَبُّ ارْحَمْنَا، لأَنَّنَا كَثِيرًا مَا امْتَلأْنَا هَوَانًا.

Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.

كَثِيرًا مَا شَبِعَتْ أَنْفُسُنَا مِنْ هُزْءِ الْمُسْتَرِيحِينَ وَإِهَانَةِ الْمُسْتَكْبِرِينَ.

Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud.
