< 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, so that you may be revered.
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 with the LORD there is loving kindness. With him is abundant redemption.
8 And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
He will redeem Israel from all their sins.
