Psalms 130

1 Out of the depths I have cried to thee, O Lord:

A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths I have cried to you, LORD.

2 Lord, hear my voice. Let thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.

Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.

3 If thou, O Lord, wilt mark iniquities: Lord, who shall stand it.

If you, LORD, kept a record of sins, Lord, who could stand?

4 For with thee there is merciful forgiveness: and by reason of thy law, I have waited for thee, O Lord. My soul hath relied on his word:

But there is forgiveness with you, therefore you are feared.

5 My soul hath hoped in the Lord.

I wait for the LORD. My soul waits. I hope in his word.

6 From the morning watch even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord.

My soul longs for the Lord more than watchmen long for the morning, more than watchmen for the morning.

7 Because with the Lord there is mercy: and with him plentiful redemption.

Israel, hope in the LORD, for there is loving kindness with the LORD. Abundant redemption is with him.

8 And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

He will redeem Israel from all their sins.
