< Psalms 130 >
1 A song of ascents. Out of the depths I cry to You, O LORD!
A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths I have cried to you, LORD.
2 O Lord, hear my voice; let Your ears be attentive to my plea for mercy.
Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.
3 If You, O LORD, kept track of iniquities, then who, O Lord, could stand?
If you, LORD, kept a record of sins, Lord, who could stand?
4 But with You there is forgiveness, so that You may be feared.
But there is forgiveness with you, therefore you are feared.
5 I wait for the LORD; my soul does wait, and in His word I put my hope.
I wait for the LORD. My soul waits. I hope in his word.
6 My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning— more than watchmen wait 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, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is loving devotion, and with Him is redemption in abundance.
Israel, hope in the LORD, for there is loving kindness with the LORD. Abundant redemption is with him.
8 And He will redeem Israel from all iniquity.
He will redeem Israel from all their sins.
