Psalms 123

Latin 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, Septuagint, 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 morphological tagging. Glosses are matched by word form against a dictionary — a match does not prove it is the same word (an inflected form can coincide with another word’s lemma). Verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.
⚠️ The Chinese and English alongside are the CUV and the WEB, both translated from the Masoretic Text; they follow a different textual tradition from the Greek and Latin shown here and will disagree in places.

123:1
Canticum graduum. Ad te levavi oculos meos, qui habitas in caelis.
I lift up my eyes to you, you who sit in the heavens.
坐在天上的主啊, 我向你舉目。
123:2
Ecce sicut oculi servorum in manibus dominorum suorum ; sicut oculi ancillae in manibus dominae suae : ita oculi nostri ad Dominum Deum nostrum, donec misereatur nostri.
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 Yahweh, our God, until he has mercy on us.
看哪,僕人的眼睛怎樣望主人的手, 使女的眼睛怎樣望主母的手, 我們的眼睛也照樣望耶和華-我們的上帝, 直到他憐憫我們。
123:3
Miserere nostri, Domine, miserere nostri, quia multum repleti sumus despectione ;
Have mercy on us, Yahweh, have mercy on us, for we have endured much contempt.
耶和華啊,求你憐憫我們,憐憫我們! 因為我們被藐視,已到極處。
123:4
quia multum repleta est anima nostra opprobrium abundantibus, et despectio superbis.
Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scoffing of those who are at ease, with the contempt of the proud.
我們被那些安逸人的譏誚 和驕傲人的藐視,已到極處。
