< Psalms 130 >
1 A Song of Degrees. Out of the depths have I cried to thee, O Lord.
A song of ascents. Out of the depths I cry to You, O LORD!
2 O Lord, hearken to my voice; let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
O Lord, hear my voice; let Your ears be attentive to my plea for mercy.
3 If thou, O Lord, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?
If You, O LORD, kept track of iniquities, then who, O Lord, could stand?
4 For with thee is forgiveness: for thy name's sake
But with You there is forgiveness, so that You may be feared.
5 have I waited for thee, O Lord, my soul has waited for thy word.
I wait for the LORD; my soul does wait, and in His word I put my hope.
6 My soul has hoped in the Lord; from the morning watch till night.
My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning— more than watchmen wait for the morning.
7 Let Israel hope in the Lord: for with the Lord is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.
O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is loving devotion, and with Him is redemption in abundance.
8 And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
And He will redeem Israel from all iniquity.
