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 watchmen wait for the morning, 
       more than 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.
