< Psalms 130 >

1 [A Song of Ascents.] Out of the depths I have cried to you, YHWH.
“A psalm of the steps, or the goings up.” Out of the depths do I cry to thee, O LORD!
2 YHWH, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.
O Lord! listen to my voice, Let thine ears be attentive to my supplication!
3 If you, JAH, kept a record of sins, YHWH, who could stand?
If thou, LORD, shouldst treasure up transgressions, Lord, who could stand?
4 But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be revered.
But with thee is forgiveness, That thou mayst be feared.
5 I wait for YHWH. My soul waits. I hope in his word.
I trust in the LORD; my soul doth trust, And in his promise do I confide.
6 My soul longs for YHWH more than watchmen long for the morning; more than watchmen for the 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, hope in YHWH, for with YHWH there is loving kindness. With him is abundant redemption.
O Israel! trust in the LORD! For with the LORD is mercy, And with him is plenteous redemption.
8 He will redeem Israel from all their sins.
He will redeem Israel From all his iniquities.
