Psalms 130

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

Out of the depths I have cried to thee, O Lord:

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

Lord, hear my voice. Let thy 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 thou, O Lord, wilt mark iniquities: Lord, who shall stand it.

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

For with thee there is merciful forgiveness: and by reason of thy law, I have waited for thee, O Lord. My soul hath relied on his word:

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

My soul hath 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.

Because with the Lord there is mercy: and with him plentiful redemption.

8 And He will redeem Israel from all iniquity.

And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
