¹ A Song of Ascents. To thee I lift up my eyes, O thou who art enthroned in the heavens! ² Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to the LORD our God, till he have mercy upon us. ³ Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us, for we have had more than enough of contempt. ⁴ Too long our soul has been sated with the scorn of those who are at ease, the contempt of the proud.
