< Psalms 130 >

1 A Song of degrees. Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD.
A song of ascents. Out of the depths I cry to you, Yahweh.
2 Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.
Lord, hear my voice; let your ears be attentive to my pleas for mercy.
3 If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?
If you, Yahweh, would mark iniquities, Lord, who could stand?
4 But [there is] forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.
But there is forgiveness with you, that you may be revered.
5 I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.
I wait for Yahweh, my soul waits, and in his word I hope.
6 My soul [waiteth] for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: [I say, more than] they that watch for the morning.
My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning.
7 Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD [there is] mercy, and with him [is] plenteous redemption.
Israel, hope in Yahweh. Yahweh is merciful, and he is very willing to forgive.
8 And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
It is he who will redeem Israel from all his sins.
