¹A song of ascents. By David:

Adonai , I call to you from the depths;

²hear my cry, Adonai !

Let your ears pay attention

to the sound of my pleading.

³Yah , if you kept a record of sins,

who, Adonai , could stand?

⁴But with you there is forgiveness,

so that you will be feared.

⁵I wait longingly for Adonai ;

I put my hope in his word.

⁶Everything in me waits for Adonai

more than guards on watch wait for morning,

more than guards on watch wait for morning.

⁷Isra’el, put your hope in Adonai !

For grace is found with Adonai ,

and with him is unlimited redemption.

⁸He will redeem Isra’el

from all their wrongdoings.
