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, Jehovah.

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

Jehovah, 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, JAH, kept a record of sins, Jehovah, who could stand?

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

But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be revered.

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

I wait for Jehovah. 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 Jehovah 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 Jehovah, for with Jehovah there is loving kindness. With him is abundant redemption.

8 And He will redeem Israel from all iniquity.

He will redeem Israel from all their sins.
