< Psalms 130 >

1 A Song of degrees. Out of the depths do I call upon thee, Jehovah.
A song of ascents. Out of the depths I cry to You, O LORD!
2 Lord, hear 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, Jah, shouldest mark iniquities, Lord, who shall stand?
If You, O LORD, kept track of iniquities, then who, O Lord, could stand?
4 But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.
But with You there is forgiveness, so that You may be feared.
5 I wait for Jehovah; my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.
I wait for the LORD; my soul does wait, and in His word I put my hope.
6 My soul [waiteth] for the Lord more than the watchers [wait] for the morning, [more than] the watchers for the morning.
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 Jehovah, because with Jehovah there is loving-kindness, 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 will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
And He will redeem Israel from all iniquity.
