A Prayer for Mercy

A song ·for going up to worship [of ascents; C perhaps sung while traveling to Jerusalem to celebrate an annual religious festival like Passover].

130 Lord, ·I am in great trouble [L from the depths],
    so I ·call out [pray] to you.
Lord, hear my voice;
    ·listen to my prayer for help [L let your ear pay attention to the sound of my supplication].
Lord, if you ·punished people for all their sins [L observed/watched/guarded against iniquity],
    ·no one would be left [L who could stand…?], Lord.
But you forgive ·us [L your people],
    so you are ·respected [feared; Prov. 1:7].

I ·wait [hope] for the Lord ·to help me [L my soul hopes],
    and I ·trust [hope in] his word.
I ·wait for the Lord to help me [hope for the Lord]
    more than night watchmen wait for the ·dawn [morning],
more than night watchmen wait for the ·dawn [morning].

People of Israel, put your hope in the Lord
    because he is ·loving [loyal]
    and ·able to save [L with him is abundant redemption].
He will ·save [redeem] Israel
    from all their ·sins [iniquities].

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.
