Berean Standard Bible
1To thee have I lifted up my eyes, who dwellest in heaven.
1I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of the LORD.”
2Behold as the eyes of the servants are on the hands of their masters, As the eyes of the handmaid are on the hands of her mistress: so are our eyes unto the Lord our God, until he have mercy on us.
2Our feet are standing in your gates, O Jerusalem.
3Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us: for we are greatly filled with contempt.
3Jerusalem is built up as a city united together,
4For our soul is greatly filled: we are a reproach to the rich, and contempt to the proud.
4where the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, as a testimony for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the LORD.
