A Song of Ascents.

130 Out of the depths I have cried to you, Yahweh.
Lord, hear my voice.
    Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.
If you, Yah, kept a record of sins,
    Lord, who could stand?
But there is forgiveness with you,
    therefore you are feared.
I wait for Yahweh.
    My soul waits.
    I hope in his word.
My soul longs for the Lord more than watchmen long for the morning,
    more than watchmen for the morning.
Israel, hope in Yahweh,
    for there is loving kindness with Yahweh.
    Abundant redemption is with him.
He will redeem Israel from all their sins.

Psalm 130

A Song of [a]Ascents.

Out of the depths have I cried to You, O Lord.

Lord, hear my voice; let Your ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.

If You, Lord, should keep account of and treat [us according to our] sins, O Lord, who could stand?(A)

But there is forgiveness with You [just what man needs], that You may be reverently feared and worshiped.(B)

I wait for the Lord, I expectantly wait, and in His word do I hope.

I am looking and waiting for the Lord more than watchmen for the morning, I say, more than watchmen for the morning.

O Israel, hope in the Lord! For with the Lord there is mercy and loving-kindness, and with Him is plenteous redemption.

And He will redeem Israel from all their iniquities.
