患难中求助的祷告

上圣殿朝圣之诗。

130 耶和华啊!
我在绝望的深渊中向你呼求。
主啊,求你垂听我的呼求,
侧耳听我的祈求。
主耶和华啊,
倘若你追究我们的罪过,
谁能站得住呢?
然而,你赦免我们,
所以你当受敬畏。

我等候耶和华,一心等候祂,
祂的话语是我的盼望。
我一心等候耶和华,
比守夜的盼望天明还要迫切,
比守夜的盼望天明还要迫切。
以色列啊,要信靠耶和华,
因为祂有慈爱,能完全救赎我们。
祂必把以色列从罪恶中救赎出来。

130 Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Lord.

Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.

If thou, Lord, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?

But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.

I wait for the Lord, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.

My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.

Let Israel hope in the Lord: for with the Lord there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.

And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

My Soul Waits for the Lord

A Song of (A)Ascents.

130 Out of (B)the depths I cry to you, O Lord!
    O Lord, hear my voice!
(C)Let your ears be attentive
    to (D)the voice of my pleas for mercy!

If you, O Lord, should (E)mark iniquities,
    O Lord, who could (F)stand?
But with you there is (G)forgiveness,
    (H)that you may be feared.

I (I)wait for the Lord, (J)my soul waits,
    and (K)in his word I hope;
my soul (L)waits for the Lord
    more than (M)watchmen for (N)the morning,
    more than watchmen for the morning.

O Israel, (O)hope in the Lord!
    For (P)with the Lord there is steadfast love,
    and with him is plentiful redemption.
And he will (Q)redeem Israel
    from all his iniquities.
