הִנֵּ֨ה כְעֵינֵ֪י עֲבָדִ֡ים אֶל יַ֤ד אֲדוֹנֵיהֶ֗ם כְּעֵינֵ֣י שִׁפְחָה֮ אֶ֪ל יַ֫ד גְּבִרְתָּ֥הּ כֵּ֤ן עֵינֵ֥ינוּ אֶל יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֵ֑ינוּ עַ֝֗ד שֶׁיְּחָנֵּֽנוּ׃
hineh kʿeyney ʿabadiym ʾel yad ʾadvoneyhem kʿeyney shipḥah ʾel yad gbirtah ken ʿeyneynv ʾel yhvah ʾeloheynv ʿad sheyḥanenv
King James Version (KJV)

Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters, and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes wait upon the LORD our God, until that he have mercy upon us.

Modern English

Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maidservant to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to the LORD our God, till he has mercy upon us.
