Psalms 130

1 A Song of the Ascents. From depths I have called Thee, Jehovah.

A Song of the going up. Out of the deep have I sent up my cry to you, O Lord.

2 Lord, hearken to my voice, Thine ears are attentive to the voice of my supplications.

Lord, let my voice come before you: let your ears be awake to the voice of my prayer.

3 If iniquities Thou dost observe, O Lord, who doth stand?

O Jah, if you took note of every sin, who would go free?

4 But with Thee [is] forgiveness, that Thou mayest be feared.

But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be feared.

5 I hoped [for] Jehovah — hoped hath my soul, And for His word I have waited.

I am waiting for the Lord, my soul is waiting for him, and my hope is in his word.

6 My soul [is] for the Lord, More than those watching for morning, Watching for morning!

My soul is watching for the Lord more than those who are watching for the morning; yes, more than the watchers for the morning.

7 Israel doth wait on Jehovah, For with Jehovah [is] kindness, And abundant with Him [is] redemption.

O Israel, have hope in the Lord; for with the Lord is mercy and full salvation.

8 And He doth redeem Israel from all his iniquities!

And he will make Israel free from all his sins.
