Psalms 130

1 Out of the depths I have cried to you, Adonai.

“A song of the degrees.” Out of the depths have I called thee, O Lord.

2 Lord, sh'ma ·hear obey· my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.

Lord, listen to my voice: let thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.

3 If you, Yah, kept a record of depravities (moral evils), Lord, who could stand?

If thou, Lord, shouldst treasure up iniquities, O Lord, who would be able to stand?

4 But there is forgiveness with you, therefore you are feared.

But with thee there is forgiveness, in order that thou mayest be feared.

5 I wait for Adonai. My soul waits. I hope in his word.

I hope for the Lord, my soul doth hope, and for his word do I wait.

6 My soul longs for 'Adonay [Lord] more than watchmen long for the morning; more than watchmen for the morning.

My soul [waiteth] for the Lord, more than they that watch for the morning expect the morning.

7 Israel [God prevails], hope in Adonai, for with Adonai there is chesed ·loving-kindness·. With him is abundant redemption.

Let Israel wait for the Lord; for with the Lord there is kindness, and with him is redemption in abundance;

8 He will redeem Israel [God prevails] from all their depravities (moral evils).

And he wilt surely redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
