Psalms, Chapter 123
1. Unto thee, have I lifted up mine eyes, O thou who art enthroned in the heavens.
2. Lo! as the eyes of men-servants are unto the hand of their masters, as the eyes of a maid-servant, unto the hand of her mistress, so, are our eyes, unto Yahweh our God, until that he show us favour.
3. Show us favour, O Yahweh, show us favour, for, exceedingly, are we sated with contempt:
4. Exceeding sated therewith, is our soul, -- The scorn of the careless, The contempt of the proud.

Text source: Public Domain: Rotherham s Emphasized Bible (abbreviated EBR to avoid confusion with the REB) is a translation of the Bible that uses various methods, such as emphatic idiom and special diacritical marks, to bring out nuances of the underlying Greek, Hebrew, and Aramaic texts. It was produced by Joseph Bryant Rotherham, a bible scholar and minister of the Churches of Christ, who described his goal as placing the reader of the present time in as good a position as that occupied by the reader of the first century for understanding the Apostolic Writings.
