1Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens.
1{Pesem stopinj.} K tebi dvigam oči svoje, o ti, ki stoluješ v nebesih!
2Behold, 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.
2Glej, kakor hlapcev oči gledajo na roko gospodarja svojega, kakor dekle oči na roko gospodinje svoje: tako gledajo oči naše v GOSPODA, Boga našega, dokler se nas ne usmili.
3Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
3Usmili se nas, GOSPOD, usmili se nas, ker dovolj je, siti smo zaničevanja.Dosti je nasičena duša naša sramočenja lahkoživcev in zaničevanja prevzetnežev.
4Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud.
4Dosti je nasičena duša naša sramočenja lahkoživcev in zaničevanja prevzetnežev.
