Psalms 123
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1A Song of Ascents. Unto Thee I lift up mine eyes, O Thou that art enthroned in the heavens.
1Canticum graduum. [Nisi quia Dominus erat in nobis, dicat nunc Israël,
2Behold, as the eyes of servants unto the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes look unto the LORD our God, until He be gracious unto us.
2nisi quia Dominus erat in nobis: cum exsurgerent homines in nos,
3Be gracious unto us, O LORD, be gracious unto us; for we are full sated with contempt.
3forte vivos deglutissent nos; cum irasceretur furor eorum in nos,
4Our soul is full sated with the scorning of those that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud oppressors.
4forsitan aqua absorbuisset nos;
