Psalms 123

Greek original · 4 verses · some words can be tapped for a gloss

← ch. 122ch. 124 →
📖 This chapter exists in 3 other originals — side by side (Hebrew Old Testament, Vulgate, Ge'ez Bible)
⚠️ Psalms use Masoretic (Hebrew) numbering, which differs from printed Vulgate and Septuagint editions: Ps 123 here = Ps 122 in print. Convert before citing a printed edition.
ℹ️ This corpus has no verse-level morphological tagging. Lemmas come mainly from word-level tagging of other books in the same language (not from this verse), falling back to dictionary form-matching for the rest. Rare homographs can still be misread; verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.
ℹ️ The Chinese and English alongside are this site's own translation, made directly from the original text on this page (not the CUV or the WEB, which follow the Masoretic Text and a different textual tradition).

123:1
ᾠδὴ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν πρὸς σὲ ἦρα τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου τὸν κατοικοῦντα ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ
A song of the ascents. To you I lifted up my eyes, to you who dwell in heaven.
上行之歌。住在天上的主啊,我向你舉目。
123:2
ἰδοὺ ὡς ὀφθαλμοὶ δούλων εἰς χεῖρας τῶν κυρίων αὐτῶν ὡς ὀφθαλμοὶ παιδίσκης εἰς χεῖρας τῆς κυρίας αὐτῆς οὕτως οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ ἡμῶν πρὸς κύριον τὸν θεὸν ἡμῶν ἕως οὗ οἰκτιρήσαι ἡμᾶς
Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hands of their masters, as the eyes of a maidservant to the hands of her mistress, so our eyes look to the Lord our God, until he has compassion on us.
看哪,僕人的眼睛怎樣望著主人的手,使女的眼睛怎樣望著女主人的手,我們的眼睛也照樣望著主我們的神,直到他憐憫我們。
123:3
ἐλέησον ἡμᾶς κύριε ἐλέησον ἡμᾶς ὅτι ἐπὶ πολὺ ἐπλήσθημεν ἐξουδενώσεως
Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us, for we have been filled exceedingly with contempt.
主啊,求你憐憫我們,求你憐憫我們!因為我們被藐視已到極處。
123:4
ἐπὶ πλεῖον ἐπλήσθη ἡ ψυχὴ ἡμῶν τὸ ὄνειδος τοῖς εὐθηνοῦσιν καὶ ἡ ἐξουδένωσις τοῖς ὑπερηφάνοις
Our soul has been filled even more: the reproach is for those who prosper, and the contempt for the proud.
我們的魂被充滿更甚;凌辱歸與安逸的人,藐視歸與驕傲的人。
