< Psalms 130 >
1 A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Jehovah.
[A Song of Ascents.] Out of the depths I have cried to you, LORD.
2 Lord, hear my voice: Let thine ears be attentive To the voice of my supplications.
LORD, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.
3 If thou, Jehovah, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand?
If you, LORD, kept a record of sins, LORD, who could stand?
4 But there is forgiveness with thee, That thou mayest be feared.
But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be revered.
5 I wait for Jehovah, my soul doth wait, And in his word do I hope.
I wait for the LORD. My soul waits. I hope in his word.
6 My soul [waiteth] for the Lord More than watchmen [wait] for the morning; [Yea, more than] watchmen for the morning.
My soul longs for the LORD more than watchmen long for the morning; more than watchmen for the morning.
7 O Israel, hope in Jehovah; For with Jehovah there is lovingkindness, And with him is plenteous redemption.
Israel, hope in the LORD, for with the LORD there is loving kindness. With him is abundant redemption.
8 And he will redeem Israel From all his iniquities.
He will redeem Israel from all their sins.
