< Psalms 130 >
1 A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths I have cried to you, LORD.
OUT of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Lord.
2 Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.
Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.
3 If you, LORD, kept a record of sins, Lord, who could stand?
If thou, Lord, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?
4 But there is forgiveness with you, therefore you are feared.
But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.
5 I wait for the LORD. My soul waits. I hope in his word.
I wait for the Lord, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.
6 My soul longs for the 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: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.
7 Israel, hope in the LORD, for there is loving kindness with the LORD. Abundant redemption is with him.
Let Israel hope in the Lord: for with the Lord there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.
8 He will redeem Israel from all their sins.
And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
