"For long enough have men of pride made sport of our soul."
— Psalms 123:4-1964, Bible in Basic English
“Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud. ”
“Our soul is exceedingly filled With the scoffing of those that are at ease, And with the contempt of the proud. ”
“Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scoffing of those who are at ease, with the contempt of the proud. A Song of Ascents. By David.”
“We have had our fill of the taunts of the self-assured, of the contempt of the proud.”
“Perhaps the waters had swallowed us up. Our soul hath passed through a torrent: perhaps our soul had passed through a water insupportable. Blessed be the Lord, who hath not given us to be a prey to their teeth. Our soul hath been delivered as a sparrow out of the snare of the fowlers. The snare is broken, and we are delivered. Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth. ”
“Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud. ”
To you my eyes are lifted up, even to you whose seat is in the heavens.
See! as the eyes of servants are turned to the hands of their masters, and the eyes of a servant-girl to her owner, so our eyes are waiting for the Lord our God, till he has mercy on us.
Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us: for all men are looking down on us.
For long enough have men of pride made sport of our soul.
