Psalms 130

1 A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. I have called You from the depths, YHWH.

Out of the depths I have cried to thee, O Lord:

2 Lord, listen to my voice, Your ears are attentive to the voice of my supplications.

Lord, hear my voice. Let thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.

3 If You observe iniquities, Lord YAH, who stands?

If thou, O Lord, wilt mark iniquities: Lord, who shall stand it.

4 But forgiveness [is] with You, that You may be feared.

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:

5 I hoped [for] YHWH—my soul has hoped, And I have waited for His word.

My soul hath hoped in the Lord.

6 My soul [is] for the Lord, More than those watching for morning, Watching for morning!

From the morning watch even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord.

7 Israel waits on YHWH, For kindness [is] with YHWH, And redemption [is] abundant with Him.

Because with the Lord there is mercy: and with him plentiful redemption.

8 And He redeems Israel from all his iniquities!

And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
