Psalm 130-131
English Standard Version
My Soul Waits for the Lord
A Song of (A)Ascents.
130 Out of (B)the depths I cry to you, O Lord!
2 O Lord, hear my voice!
(C)Let your ears be attentive
to (D)the voice of my pleas for mercy!
3 If you, O Lord, should (E)mark iniquities,
O Lord, who could (F)stand?
4 But with you there is (G)forgiveness,
(H)that you may be feared.
5 I (I)wait for the Lord, (J)my soul waits,
and (K)in his word I hope;
6 my soul (L)waits for the Lord
more than (M)watchmen for (N)the morning,
more than watchmen for the morning.
7 O Israel, (O)hope in the Lord!
For (P)with the Lord there is steadfast love,
and with him is plentiful redemption.
8 And he will (Q)redeem Israel
from all his iniquities.
I Have Calmed and Quieted My Soul
A Song of (R)Ascents. Of David.
131 O Lord, my heart is not (S)lifted up;
my eyes are not (T)raised too high;
I do not (U)occupy myself with things
too great and (V)too marvelous for me.
2 But I have calmed and quieted my soul,
like a weaned (W)child with its mother;
like a weaned child is my soul within me.
3 (X)O Israel, hope in the Lord
from this time forth and forevermore.
