# Psalms 123 [[Psalms 122|←]] • [[Psalms 124|→]] --- A Song of degrees. ### 1 Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens. ### 2 Behold, as the eyes of servants unto the hand of their masters, as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes upon the Lord our God, until that he have mercy upon us. ### 3 Have mercy upon us, O Lord, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt. ### 4 Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, with the contempt of the proud.
