< Psalms 130 >

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