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.
