Psalm 130

Awaiting Redemption

A song of ascents.

Out of the depths I call to you, Lord!(A)
Lord, listen to my voice;
let your ears be attentive
to my cry for help.(B)

Lord, if you kept an account of iniquities,
Lord, who could stand?(C)
But with you there is forgiveness,
so that you may be revered.(D)

I wait for the Lord; I wait
and put my hope in his word.(E)
I wait for the Lord
more than watchmen for the morning—
more than watchmen for the morning.(F)

Israel, put your hope in the Lord.(G)
For there is faithful love with the Lord,
and with him is redemption in abundance.(H)
And he will redeem Israel
from all its iniquities.(I)

Hope in the Lords Forgiving Love.

A Song of Ascents.

130 Out of the (A)depths I have cried to You, Lord.
Lord, (B)hear my voice!
Let (C)Your ears be attentive
To the (D)sound of my pleadings.
If You, [a]Lord, were to keep account of guilty deeds,
Lord, who could (E)stand?
But there is (F)forgiveness with You,
So that You may be [b](G)revered.

I wait for the Lord, my (H)soul waits,
And I [c]wait (I)for His word.
My soul waits in hope for the Lord
More than the watchmen (J)for the morning;
Yes, more than the watchmen for the morning.
Israel, (K)wait for the Lord;
For with the Lord there is (L)mercy,
And with Him is (M)abundant redemption.
And He will (N)redeem Israel
From all his guilty deeds.
