Psalm 130

Awaiting Redemption

A song of ascents.

Out of the depths I call to You, Yahweh!(A)
Lord, listen to my voice;
let Your ears be attentive
to my cry for help.(B)

Yahweh, if You considered sins,
Lord, who could stand?(C)
But with You there is forgiveness,
so that You may be revered.(D)

I wait for Yahweh; I wait
and put my hope in His word.(E)
I wait for the Lord
more than watchmen for the morning—
more than watchmen for the morning.(F)

Israel, put your hope in the Lord.(G)
For there is faithful love with the Lord,
and with Him is redemption in abundance.(H)
And He will redeem Israel
from all its sins.(I)

Psalm 130

A song of ascents.

Out of the depths(A) I cry to you,(B) Lord;
    Lord, hear my voice.(C)
Let your ears be attentive(D)
    to my cry for mercy.(E)

If you, Lord, kept a record of sins,
    Lord, who could stand?(F)
But with you there is forgiveness,(G)
    so that we can, with reverence, serve you.(H)

I wait for the Lord,(I) my whole being waits,(J)
    and in his word(K) I put my hope.
I wait for the Lord
    more than watchmen(L) wait for the morning,
    more than watchmen wait for the morning.(M)

Israel, put your hope(N) in the Lord,
    for with the Lord is unfailing love(O)
    and with him is full redemption.(P)
He himself will redeem(Q) Israel
    from all their sins.(R)
