130
A song of ascents.
1 Out of the depths I cry to you, Yahweh.
2 Lord, hear my voice;
let your ears be attentive
to my pleas for mercy.
3 If you, Yahweh, would mark iniquities,
Lord, who could stand?
4 But there is forgiveness with you,
that you may be revered.
5 I wait for Yahweh, my soul waits,
and in his word I hope.
6 My soul waits for the Lord
more than watchmen wait for the morning.
7 Israel, hope in Yahweh.
Yahweh is merciful,
and he is very willing to forgive.
8 It is he who will redeem Israel
from all his sins.
