Psalm 130
Waiting for Divine Redemption
A Song of Ascents.
1 Out of the depths I cry to you, O Lord.(A)
2 Lord, hear my voice!
Let your ears be attentive
to the voice of my supplications!(B)
3 If you, O Lord, should mark iniquities,
Lord, who could stand?(C)
4 But there is forgiveness with you,
so that you may be revered.(D)
5 I wait for the Lord; my soul waits,
and in his word I hope;(E)
6 my soul waits for the Lord
more than those who watch for the morning,
more than those who watch for the morning.(F)
7 O Israel, hope in the Lord!
For with the Lord there is steadfast love,
and with him is great power to redeem.(G)
8 It is he who will redeem Israel
from all its iniquities.(H)
