< Psalms 130 >
1 A song of ascents. Out of the depths I cry to you, Yahweh.
A Song of Degrees. Out of the depths have I cried to you, O Lord.
2 Lord, hear my voice; let your ears be attentive to my pleas for mercy.
O Lord, listen to my voice; let your ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
3 If you, Yahweh, would mark iniquities, Lord, who could stand?
If you, O Lord, should mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?
4 But there is forgiveness with you, that you may be revered.
For with you is forgiveness: for your name's sake
5 I wait for Yahweh, my soul waits, and in his word I hope.
have I waited for you, O Lord, my soul has waited for your word.
6 My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning.
My soul has hoped in the Lord; from the morning watch till night.
7 Israel, hope in Yahweh. Yahweh is merciful, and he is very willing to forgive.
Let Israel hope in the Lord: for with the Lord is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.
8 It is he who will redeem Israel from all his sins.
And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
