Psalms 130

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

“A psalm of the steps, or the goings up.” Out of the depths do I cry to thee, O LORD!

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

O Lord! listen to my voice, Let thine ears be attentive to my supplication!

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

If thou, LORD, shouldst treasure up transgressions, Lord, who could stand?

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

But with thee is forgiveness, That thou mayst be feared.

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

I trust in the LORD; my soul doth trust, And in his promise do I confide.

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

My soul waiteth for the LORD More than they who watch for the morning; Yea, more than they who watch for the morning!

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

O Israel! trust in the LORD! For with the LORD is mercy, And with him is plenteous redemption.

8 And He doth redeem Israel from all his iniquities!

He will redeem Israel From all his iniquities.
