< Psalms 130 >
1 A Canticle in steps. From the depths, I have cried out to you, O Lord.
A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths, have I cried unto thee, O Yahweh.
2 O Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
O My Lord! hearken thou unto my voice, —Let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications,
3 If you, O Lord, were to heed iniquities, who, O Lord, could persevere?
If, iniquities, thou shouldest mark, O Yah, O My Lord, who could stand?
4 For with you, there is forgiveness, and because of your law, I persevered with you, Lord. My soul has persevered in his word.
But, with thee, is forgiveness, that thou mayest be revered.
5 My soul has hoped in the Lord.
I have waited for Yahweh, My soul hath waited for his word;
6 From the morning watch, even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord.
I have hoped, O my soul, for My Lord, more than they who watch for the morning, who watch for the morning.
7 For with the Lord there is mercy, and with him there is bountiful redemption.
Wait, O Israel, for Yahweh, —for, with Yahweh, is lovingkindness, and there aboundeth with him—redemption.
8 And he will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
He, therefore, will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
