PSALM 130

¹A song of ascents.

          From the depths I called You, LORD.

    ²Master, hear my voice.

          May Your ears listen close to the voice of my plea.

    ³Were You, O Yah, to watch for wrongs,

          Master, who could endure?

    ⁴For forgiveness is Yours,

          so that You may be feared.

    ⁵I hoped for the LORD, my being hoped,

          and for His word I waited.

    ⁶My being for the Master—

          more than the dawn-watchers watch for the dawn.

    ⁷Wait, O Israel, for the LORD,

          for with the LORD is steadfast kindness,

              and great redemption is with Him.

    ⁸And He will redeem Israel

          from all its wrongs.
