Psalm 130

Hope in the Lord’s Forgiving Love.

¹Out of the depths I have cried to You, Lord .

²Lord, hear my voice!

Let Your ears be attentive

To the sound of my pleadings.

³If You, Lord , were to keep account of guilty deeds,[#130:3 Heb Yah]

Lord, who could stand?

⁴But there is forgiveness with You,

So that You may be revered.

⁵¶I wait for the Lord , my soul waits,

And I wait for His word.

⁶My soul waits in hope for the Lord

More than the watchmen for the morning;

Yes, more than the watchmen for the morning.

⁷Israel, wait for the Lord ;

For with the Lord there is mercy,

And with Him is abundant redemption.

⁸And He will redeem Israel

From all his guilty deeds.
