A prayer for mercy, eyes on the LORD as servants’ eyes on their master’s hand
종의 눈이 상전의 손을 바람 같이 여호와를 바라며 긍휼을 구하는 기도
Psalm 123:1–4: the speaker (“I”) says, “I lift up my eyes to you, you who sit in the heavens.” The prayer goes on in the voice of “we”: “Behold, 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 has mercy on us. Have mercy on us, LORD, have mercy on us, for we have endured much contempt. Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scoffing of those who are at ease, with the contempt of the proud.” WEB opens 123:1 with the title “A Song of Ascents.”; the Korean Revised Version text this collection holds has no title in 123:1.
