A Song of Ascents.

130 Out of the depths I have cried to you, Yahweh.
Lord, hear my voice.
    Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.
If you, Yah, kept a record of sins,
    Lord, who could stand?
But there is forgiveness with you,
    therefore you are feared.
I wait for Yahweh.
    My soul waits.
    I hope in his word.
My soul longs for the Lord more than watchmen long for the morning,
    more than watchmen for the morning.
Israel, hope in Yahweh,
    for there is loving kindness with Yahweh.
    Abundant redemption is with him.
He will redeem Israel from all their sins.

Psalm 130

Waiting for Divine Redemption

A Song of Ascents.

Out of the depths I cry to you, O Lord.(A)
    Lord, hear my voice!
Let your ears be attentive
    to the voice of my supplications!(B)

If you, O Lord, should mark iniquities,
    Lord, who could stand?(C)
But there is forgiveness with you,
    so that you may be revered.(D)

I wait for the Lord; my soul waits,
    and in his word I hope;(E)
my soul waits for the Lord
    more than those who watch for the morning,
    more than those who watch for the morning.(F)

O Israel, hope in the Lord!
    For with the Lord there is steadfast love,
    and with him is great power to redeem.(G)
It is he who will redeem Israel
    from all its iniquities.(H)
