< Psalms 130 >
1 A Canticle in steps. From the depths, I have cried out 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 the voice of my supplication.
Lord, hear my voice. Let thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
3 If you, O Lord, were to heed iniquities, who, O Lord, could persevere?
If thou, O Lord, wilt mark iniquities: Lord, who shall stand it.
4 For with you, there is forgiveness, and because of your law, I persevered with you, Lord. My soul has persevered in his word.
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 My soul has hoped in the Lord.
My soul hath hoped in the Lord.
6 From the morning watch, even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord.
From the morning watch even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord.
7 For with the Lord there is mercy, and with him there is bountiful redemption.
Because with the Lord there is mercy: and with him plentiful redemption.
8 And he will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
