Psalm 130

A Song of Ascents.

130 ¹Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Jehovah.

²Lord, hear my voice:

Let thine ears be attentive

To the voice of my supplications.

³If thou, Jehovah, shouldest mark iniquities,

O Lord, who could stand?

⁴But there is forgiveness with thee,

That thou mayest be feared.

⁵I wait for Jehovah, my soul doth wait,

And in his word do I hope.

⁶My soul waiteth for the Lord

More than watchmen wait for the morning;

Yea, more than watchmen for the morning.

⁷O Israel, hope in Jehovah;

For with Jehovah there is lovingkindness,

And with him is plenteous redemption.

⁸And he will redeem Israel

From all his iniquities.
