< Psalms 130 >
1 A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. I have called You from the depths, YHWH.
A Song of Degrees. Out of the depths have I cried to thee, O Lord.
2 Lord, listen to my voice, Your ears are attentive to the voice of my supplications.
O Lord, hearken to my voice; let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
3 If You observe iniquities, Lord YAH, who stands?
If thou, O Lord, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?
4 But forgiveness [is] with You, that You may be feared.
For with thee is forgiveness: for thy name's sake
5 I hoped [for] YHWH—my soul has hoped, And I have waited for His word.
have I waited for thee, O Lord, my soul has waited for thy word.
6 My soul [is] for the Lord, More than those watching for morning, Watching for morning!
My soul has hoped in the Lord; from the morning watch till night.
7 Israel waits on YHWH, For kindness [is] with YHWH, And redemption [is] abundant with Him.
Let Israel hope in the Lord: for with the Lord is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.
8 And He redeems Israel from all his iniquities!
And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
