1 To you I raise my eyes, you who sit enthroned in heaven.
2 Look—as the eyes of servants are on their master's hand, as the eyes of a maid are on her mistress's hand, so our eyes are on the LORD our God until he shows us favor.
3 Show us favor, LORD, show us favor, for we have had our fill of contempt.
4 Our soul is more than full of the mockery of the complacent, of the contempt of the arrogant.
