2Like the eyes of Servants to their Masters and like the eyes of a Handmaiden to her Mistress, so our eyes are to you, LORD JEHOVAH, our God, until you have mercy upon us!

3Show mercy upon us, LORD JEHOVAH, show mercy upon us, because of the multitude of the contempt which we have heard!

4For the multitude has filled our soul with the mockery of mockers and the contempt of the proud.
