< Psalms 130 >
1 A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. I have called You from the depths, YHWH.
A Song of the going up. Out of the deep have I sent up my cry to you, O Lord.
2 Lord, listen to my voice, Your ears are attentive to the voice of my supplications.
Lord, let my voice come before you: let your ears be awake to the voice of my prayer.
3 If You observe iniquities, Lord YAH, who stands?
O Jah, if you took note of every sin, who would go free?
4 But forgiveness [is] with You, that You may be feared.
But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be feared.
5 I hoped [for] YHWH—my soul has hoped, And I have waited for His word.
I am waiting for the Lord, my soul is waiting for him, and my hope is in his word.
6 My soul [is] for the Lord, More than those watching for morning, Watching for morning!
My soul is watching for the Lord more than those who are watching for the morning; yes, more than the watchers for the morning.
7 Israel waits on YHWH, For kindness [is] with YHWH, And redemption [is] abundant with Him.
O Israel, have hope in the Lord; for with the Lord is mercy and full salvation.
8 And He redeems Israel from all his iniquities!
And he will make Israel free from all his sins.
