1 Jeg løfter mine Øjne til dig, som troner i Himlen!

1 A Song of Ascents.To You I lift up my eyes,O You who are enthroned in the heavens!

2 Som trælles øjne følger deres Herres Hånd, som en Trælkvindes Øjne følger hendes Frues Hånd, så følger vore Øjne HERREN vor Gud, til han er os nådig.

2 Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master,As the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress,So our eyes look to the Lord our God,Until He is gracious to us.

3 Forbarm dig over os, HERRE, forbarm dig! Thi overmætte er vi af Spot,

3 Be gracious to us, O Lord, be gracious to us,For we are greatly filled with contempt.

4 overmæt er vor Sjæl af de sorgløses Hån, de stoltes Spot! 

4 Our soul is greatly filledWith the scoffing of those who are at ease,And with the contempt of the proud.
