< Psalms 130 >
1 “A song of the degrees.” Out of the depths have I called thee, O Lord.
[A Song of Ascents.] Out of the depths I have cried to you, LORD.
2 Lord, listen to my voice: let thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.
LORD, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.
3 If thou, Lord, shouldst treasure up iniquities, O Lord, who would be able to stand?
If you, LORD, kept a record of sins, LORD, who could stand?
4 But with thee there is forgiveness, in order that thou mayest be feared.
But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be revered.
5 I hope for the Lord, my soul doth hope, and for his word do I wait.
I wait for the LORD. My soul waits. I hope in his word.
6 My soul [waiteth] for the Lord, more than they that watch for the morning expect the morning.
My soul longs for the LORD more than watchmen long for the morning; more than watchmen for the morning.
7 Let Israel wait for the Lord; for with the Lord there is kindness, and with him is redemption in abundance;
Israel, hope in the LORD, for with the LORD there is loving kindness. With him is abundant redemption.
8 And he wilt surely redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
He will redeem Israel from all their sins.
