Psalms 130

1 A Song of degrees. Out of the depths have I cried to thee, O LORD.

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

2 LORD, hear my voice: let thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.

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

3 If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O LORD, who shall stand?

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

4 But [there is] forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.

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

5 I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.

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

6 My soul [waiteth] for the LORD more than they that watch for the morning: [I say], [more than] they that watch for the morning.

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

7 Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD [there is] mercy, and with him [is] plenteous redemption.

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

8 And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

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