< 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, have I cried unto thee, O Yahweh.
2 Lord, hear my voice; let thine 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 thou, Jah, shouldest mark iniquities, Lord, who shall stand?
If, iniquities, thou shouldest mark, O Yah, O My Lord, who could stand?
4 But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.
But, with thee, is forgiveness, that thou mayest be revered.
5 I wait for Jehovah; my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.
I have waited for Yahweh, My soul hath waited for his word;
6 My soul [waiteth] for the Lord more than the watchers [wait] for the morning, [more than] the watchers for the morning.
I have hoped, O my soul, for My Lord, more than they who watch for the morning, who watch for the morning.
7 Let Israel hope in Jehovah, because with Jehovah there is loving-kindness, and with him is plenteous 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.
