< Psalms 130 >
1 A song of ascents. Out of the depths I cry to You, O LORD!
“A song of the degrees.” Out of the depths have I called thee, O Lord.
2 O Lord, hear my voice; let Your ears be attentive to my plea for mercy.
Lord, listen to my voice: let thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.
3 If You, O LORD, kept track of iniquities, then who, O Lord, could stand?
If thou, Lord, shouldst treasure up iniquities, O Lord, who would be able to stand?
4 But with You there is forgiveness, so that You may be feared.
But with thee there is forgiveness, in order that thou mayest be feared.
5 I wait for the LORD; my soul does wait, and in His word I put my hope.
I hope for the Lord, my soul doth hope, and for his word do I wait.
6 My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning— more than watchmen wait for the morning.
My soul [waiteth] for the Lord, more than they that watch for the morning expect 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.
Let Israel wait for the Lord; for with the Lord there is kindness, and with him is redemption in abundance;
8 And He will redeem Israel from all iniquity.
And he wilt surely redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
