< Psalms 130 >
1 A Song of degrees. Out of the depths do I call upon thee, Jehovah.
“A song of the degrees.” Out of the depths have I called thee, O Lord.
2 Lord, hear my voice; let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
Lord, listen to my voice: let thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.
3 If thou, Jah, shouldest mark iniquities, Lord, who shall stand?
If thou, Lord, shouldst treasure up iniquities, O Lord, who would be able to stand?
4 But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.
But with thee there is forgiveness, in order that thou mayest be feared.
5 I wait for Jehovah; my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.
I hope for the Lord, my soul doth hope, and for his word do I wait.
6 My soul [waiteth] for the Lord more than the watchers [wait] for the morning, [more than] the watchers for the morning.
My soul [waiteth] for the Lord, more than they that watch for the morning expect the morning.
7 Let Israel hope in Jehovah, because with Jehovah there is loving-kindness, and with him is plenteous redemption;
Let Israel wait for the Lord; for with the Lord there is kindness, and with him is redemption in abundance;
8 And he will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
And he wilt surely redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
