< Psalms 130 >
1 A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths, have I cried unto thee, O Yahweh.
A Song of Degrees. Out of the depths have I cried to thee, O Lord.
2 O My Lord! hearken thou unto my voice, —Let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications,
O Lord, hearken to my voice; let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
3 If, iniquities, thou shouldest mark, O Yah, O My Lord, who could stand?
If thou, O Lord, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?
4 But, with thee, is forgiveness, that thou mayest be revered.
For with thee is forgiveness: for thy name's sake
5 I have waited for Yahweh, My soul hath waited for his word;
have I waited for thee, O Lord, my soul has waited for thy word.
6 I have hoped, O my soul, for My Lord, more than they who watch for the morning, who watch for the morning.
My soul has hoped in the Lord; from the morning watch till night.
7 Wait, O Israel, for Yahweh, —for, with Yahweh, is lovingkindness, and there aboundeth with him—redemption.
Let Israel hope in the Lord: for with the Lord is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.
8 He, therefore, will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
