< Psalms 130 >
1 A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD.
“A psalm of the steps, or the goings up.” Out of the depths do I cry to thee, O LORD!
2 Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.
O Lord! listen to my voice, Let thine ears be attentive to my supplication!
3 If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?
If thou, LORD, shouldst treasure up transgressions, Lord, who could stand?
4 But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.
But with thee is forgiveness, That thou mayst be feared.
5 I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.
I trust in the LORD; my soul doth trust, And in his promise do I confide.
6 My soul [looketh] for the Lord, more than watchmen [look] for the morning; [yea, 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 O Israel, hope in the LORD; for with the LORD there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.
O Israel! trust in the LORD! For with the LORD is mercy, And with him is plenteous redemption.
8 And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
He will redeem Israel From all his iniquities.
