Prayer for the Loʀᴅ’s Help.
A Song of Ascents.
1 To You I APs 121:1; 141:8lift up my eyes,
O You who BPs 2:4; 11:4are enthroned in the heavens!
As the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress,
So our BPs 25:15eyes look to the Loʀᴅ our God,
Until He is gracious to us.
3 APs 4:1; 51:1Be gracious to us, O Loʀᴅ, be gracious to us,
For we are greatly filled BNeh 4:4; Ps 119:22with contempt.
4 Our soul is greatly filled
With the ANeh 2:19; Ps 79:4scoffing of BJob 12:5; Is 32:9, 11; Amos 6:1those who are at ease,
And with the CNeh 4:4; Ps 119:22contempt of the proud.
