A song of ascents.
1
Out of the depths I cry to you, O LORD;
2
O Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to my cry for mercy.
3
If you, O LORD, kept a record of sins, O Lord, who could stand?
4
But with you there is forgveness, therefore you are feared.
5
I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, and in his word I put my hope.
6
My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning,
more than watchmen wit for the morning.
7
O Israel, put your hope in the LORD,
for with the LORD is unfailing love and with him is full redemption.
8
He himself will redeem Israelfrom all their sins.
