< Psalms 130 >
1 [A Song of Ascents.] Out of the depths I have cried to you, LORD.
A song of ascents. Out of the depths I cry to You, O LORD!
2 LORD, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.
O Lord, hear my voice; let Your ears be attentive to my plea for mercy.
3 If you, LORD, kept a record of sins, LORD, who could stand?
If You, O LORD, kept track of iniquities, then who, O Lord, could stand?
4 But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be revered.
But with You there is forgiveness, so that You may be feared.
5 I wait for the LORD. My soul waits. I hope in his word.
I wait for the LORD; my soul does wait, and in His word I put my hope.
6 My soul longs for the LORD more than watchmen long for the morning; more than watchmen for the morning.
My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning— more than watchmen wait for the morning.
7 Israel, hope in the LORD, for with the LORD there is loving kindness. With him is abundant redemption.
O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is loving devotion, and with Him is redemption in abundance.
8 He will redeem Israel from all their sins.
And He will redeem Israel from all iniquity.
