< Psalms 130 >
1 A Song of the Ascents. From depths I have called Thee, Jehovah.
A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths I have cried to you, LORD.
2 Lord, hearken to my voice, Thine ears are attentive to the voice of my supplications.
Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.
3 If iniquities Thou dost observe, O Lord, who doth stand?
If you, LORD, kept a record of sins, Lord, who could stand?
4 But with Thee [is] forgiveness, that Thou mayest be feared.
But there is forgiveness with you, therefore you are feared.
5 I hoped [for] Jehovah — hoped hath my soul, And for His word I have waited.
I wait for the LORD. My soul waits. I hope in his word.
6 My soul [is] for the Lord, More than those watching for morning, Watching for morning!
My soul longs for the Lord more than watchmen long for the morning, more than watchmen for the morning.
7 Israel doth wait on Jehovah, For with Jehovah [is] kindness, And abundant with Him [is] redemption.
Israel, hope in the LORD, for there is loving kindness with the LORD. Abundant redemption is with him.
8 And He doth redeem Israel from all his iniquities!
He will redeem Israel from all their sins.
