Psalms 130

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

“A psalm of the steps, or the goings up.” Out of the depths do I cry to thee, O LORD!

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

O Lord! listen to my voice, Let thine ears be attentive to my supplication!

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

If thou, LORD, shouldst treasure up transgressions, Lord, who could stand?

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

But with thee is forgiveness, That thou mayst be feared.

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

I trust in the LORD; my soul doth trust, And in his promise do I confide.

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

My soul waiteth for the LORD More than they who watch for the morning; Yea, more than they who watch for the morning!

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

O Israel! trust in the LORD! For with the LORD is mercy, And with him is plenteous redemption.

8 And He redeems Israel from all his iniquities!

He will redeem Israel From all his iniquities.
