< Psalms 130 >

1 A Song of the going up. Out of the deep have I sent up my cry to you, O Lord.
A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths, have I cried unto thee, O Yahweh.
2 Lord, let my voice come before you: let your ears be awake to the voice of my prayer.
O My Lord! hearken thou unto my voice, —Let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications,
3 O Jah, if you took note of every sin, who would go free?
If, iniquities, thou shouldest mark, O Yah, O My Lord, who could stand?
4 But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be feared.
But, with thee, is forgiveness, that thou mayest be revered.
5 I am waiting for the Lord, my soul is waiting for him, and my hope is in his word.
I have waited for Yahweh, My soul hath waited for his word;
6 My soul is watching for the Lord more than those who are watching for the morning; yes, more than the watchers for the morning.
I have hoped, O my soul, for My Lord, more than they who watch for the morning, who watch for the morning.
7 O Israel, have hope in the Lord; for with the Lord is mercy and full salvation.
Wait, O Israel, for Yahweh, —for, with Yahweh, is lovingkindness, and there aboundeth with him—redemption.
8 And he will make Israel free from all his sins.
He, therefore, will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
