130 A Song of the Ascents. From depths I have called Thee, Jehovah.

Lord, hearken to my voice, Thine ears are attentive to the voice of my supplications.

If iniquities Thou dost observe, O Lord, who doth stand?

But with Thee [is] forgiveness, that Thou mayest be feared.

I hoped [for] Jehovah -- hoped hath my soul, And for His word I have waited.

My soul [is] for the Lord, More than those watching for morning, Watching for morning!

Israel doth wait on Jehovah, For with Jehovah [is] kindness, And abundant with Him [is] redemption.

And He doth redeem Israel from all his iniquities!

Psalm 130

A song of ascents.

Out of the depths(A) I cry to you,(B) Lord;
    Lord, hear my voice.(C)
Let your ears be attentive(D)
    to my cry for mercy.(E)

If you, Lord, kept a record of sins,
    Lord, who could stand?(F)
But with you there is forgiveness,(G)
    so that we can, with reverence, serve you.(H)

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

Israel, put your hope(N) in the Lord,
    for with the Lord is unfailing love(O)
    and with him is full redemption.(P)
He himself will redeem(Q) Israel
    from all their sins.(R)
