Salmi 123

NOVA VULGATA	NEW JERUSALEM
1 Canticum ascensionum. Ad te levavi oculos meos, qui habitas in caelis.	1 [Song of Ascents] I lift up my eyes to you who are enthroned in heaven.
2 Ecce sicut oculi servorum ad manus dominorum suorum, sicut oculi ancillae ad manus dominae suae, ita oculi nostri ad Dominum Deum nostrum, donec misereatur nostri.	2 Just as the eyes of slaves are on their masters' hand, or the eyes of a slave-girl on the hand of hermistress, so our eyes are on Yahweh our God, for him to take pity on us.
3 Miserere nostri, Domine, miserere nostri, quia multum repleti sumus despectione;	3 Have pity on us, Yahweh, have pity, for we have had our full share of scorn,
4 quia multum repleta est anima nostra derisione abundantium et despectione superborum.	4 more than our share of jeers from the complacent. (Scorn is for the proud.)
