< Psalms 130 >
1 A Song of degrees. Out of the depths do I call upon thee, Jehovah.
“A psalm of the steps, or the goings up.” Out of the depths do I cry to thee, O LORD!
2 Lord, hear my voice; let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
O Lord! listen to my voice, Let thine ears be attentive to my supplication!
3 If thou, Jah, shouldest mark iniquities, Lord, who shall stand?
If thou, LORD, shouldst treasure up transgressions, Lord, who could stand?
4 But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.
But with thee is forgiveness, That thou mayst be feared.
5 I wait for Jehovah; my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.
I trust in the LORD; my soul doth trust, And in his promise do I confide.
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 who watch for the morning; Yea, more than they who watch for the morning!
7 Let Israel hope in Jehovah, because with Jehovah there is loving-kindness, and with him is plenteous redemption;
O Israel! trust in the LORD! For with the LORD is mercy, And with him is plenteous redemption.
8 And he will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
He will redeem Israel From all his iniquities.
