Psalms 130

1 A song of ascents. Out of the depths I cry to You, O LORD!

A Canticle in steps. From the depths, I have cried out to you, O Lord.

2 O Lord, hear my voice; let Your ears be attentive to my plea for mercy.

O Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.

3 If You, O LORD, kept track of iniquities, then who, O Lord, could stand?

If you, O Lord, were to heed iniquities, who, O Lord, could persevere?

4 But with You there is forgiveness, so that You may be feared.

For with you, there is forgiveness, and because of your law, I persevered with you, Lord. My soul has persevered in his word.

5 I wait for the LORD; my soul does wait, and in His word I put my hope.

My soul has hoped in the Lord.

6 My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning— more than watchmen wait for the morning.

From the morning watch, even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord.

7 O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is loving devotion, and with Him is redemption in abundance.

For with the Lord there is mercy, and with him there is bountiful redemption.

8 And He will redeem Israel from all iniquity.

And he will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
