א שִׁיר, הַמַּעֲלוֹת: אֵלֶיךָ, נָשָׂאתִי אֶת-עֵינַי-- הַיֹּשְׁבִי, בַּשָּׁמָיִם. |
1 A Song of Ascents. {N} Unto Thee I lift up mine eyes, O Thou that art enthroned in the heavens. |
ב הִנֵּה כְעֵינֵי עֲבָדִים, אֶל-יַד אֲדוֹנֵיהֶם-- כְּעֵינֵי שִׁפְחָה, אֶל-יַד גְּבִרְתָּהּ: כֵּן עֵינֵינוּ, אֶל-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ-- עַד, שֶׁיְּחָנֵּנוּ. |
2 Behold, as the eyes of servants unto the hand of their master, {N} as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; {N} so our eyes look unto the LORD our God, until He be gracious unto us. |
ג חָנֵּנוּ יְהוָה חָנֵּנוּ: כִּי-רַב, שָׂבַעְנוּ בוּז. |
3 Be gracious unto us, O LORD, be gracious unto us; for we are full sated with contempt. |
ד רַבַּת, שָׂבְעָה-לָּהּ נַפְשֵׁנוּ: הַלַּעַג הַשַּׁאֲנַנִּים; הַבּוּז, לגאיונים לִגְאֵי יוֹנִים. |
4 Our soul is full sated {N} with the scorning of those that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud oppressors. {P} |
