| 1A Song of degrees. Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens. | 1A Song of Ascents. To You I lift up my eyes, O You who are enthroned in the heavens! |
| 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. | 2Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, As the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress, So our eyes look to the LORD our God, Until He is gracious to us. |
| 3Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt. | 3Be gracious to us, O LORD, be gracious to us, For we are greatly filled with contempt. |
| 4Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud. | 4Our soul is greatly filled With the scoffing of those who are at ease, And with the contempt of the proud. |
