\v 1 Yahweh, I look up toward you,
|
|
\q2 up to heaven, from where you rule.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 2 As servants ask their masters for what they need
|
|
\q1 and as maids ask their mistresses for what they need,
|
|
\q2 we ask you, Yahweh our God, for what we need,
|
|
\q2 until you act mercifully toward us.

\v 3 Yahweh, act very mercifully toward us
|
|
\q2 because our enemies have acted very contemptuously toward us.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 4 Arrogant people have made fun of us for a long time,
|
|
\q2 and proud people have oppressed us and have acted as though we were worthless.
