8 For unto thee, Jehovah, Lord, are mine eyes; in thee do I trust: leave not my soul destitute.
Mine eyes are ever toward Jehovah; for he will bring my feet out of the net. Turn toward me, and be gracious unto me; for I am solitary and afflicted. The troubles of my heart are increased: bring me out of my distresses;
{A Song of degrees.} Unto thee do I lift up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens. Behold, as the eyes of servants [look] unto the hand of their masters, as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress, so our eyes [are directed] to Jehovah our God, until he be gracious unto us.
