Psalm title
שִׁיר הַֽמַּעֲלוֹת
1 A song of ascents. I lift up my eyes to You, the One enthroned in heaven.
אֵלֶיךָ נָשָׂאתִי אֶת־עֵינַי הַיֹּשְׁבִי בַּשָּׁמָֽיִם׃
2 As the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maidservant look to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes are on the LORD our God until He shows us mercy.
הִנֵּה כְעֵינֵי עֲבָדִים אֶל־יַד אֲֽדוֹנֵיהֶם כְּעֵינֵי שִׁפְחָה אֶל־יַד גְּבִרְתָּהּ כֵּן עֵינֵינוּ אֶל־יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ עַד שֶׁיְּחָנֵּֽנוּ׃
3 Have mercy on us, O LORD, have mercy, for we have endured much contempt.
חָנֵּנוּ יְהוָה חָנֵּנוּ כִּֽי־רַב שָׂבַעְנוּ בֽוּז׃
4 We have endured much scorn from the arrogant, much contempt from the proud.
רַבַּת שָֽׂבְעָה־לָּהּ נַפְשֵׁנוּ הַלַּעַג הַשַּׁאֲנַנִּים הַבּוּז לִגְאֵי יוֹנִים׃
