1Out of the depths I cry to you, Lord;2Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to my cry for mercy.3If you, Lord, kept a record of sins, Lord, who could stand?4But with you there is forgiveness, so that we can, with reverence, serve you.5I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in his word I put my hope.6I wait for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning, more than watchmen wait for the morning.7Israel, put your hope in the Lord, for with the Lord is unfailing love and with him is full redemption.8He himself will redeem Israel from all their sins.
Psalm 130
King James Version
1A Song of degrees. Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD.2Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.3If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?4But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.5I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.6My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.7Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.8And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
A song for those who go up to Jerusalem to worship the Lord.
1LORD, I cry out to you because I’m suffering so deeply.2Lord, listen to me. Pay attention to my cry for your mercy.3LORD, suppose you kept a close watch on sins. Lord, who then wouldn’t be found guilty?4But you forgive. So we can serve you with respect.5With all my heart I wait for the LORD to help me. I put my hope in his word.6I wait for the Lord to help me. I want his help more than night watchmen want the morning to come. I’ll say it again. I want his help more than night watchmen want the morning to come.7Israel, put your hope in the LORD, because the LORD’s love never fails. He sets his people completely free.8He himself will set Israel free from all their sins.
