Psalm 130

 

A song of ascents.

 

 

1                    Out of the depths I cry to you, O LORD;

 

2                    O LORD, hear my voice.  Let your ears be attentive to my cry for mercy.

 

3                    If you, O LORD, kept a record of sins, O LORD, who could stand?

 

4                    But with you there is forgiveness; therefore you are feared.

 

5                    I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, and in His word I put my hope.

 

6                    My soul waits for the LORD more than the watchmen wait for the morning, more than the watchmen wait for the morning.

 

7                    O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is unfailing love and with Him is full redemption.

 

8                    He Himself will redeem Israel from all their sins.
