(130) A Song of Degrees.
1 Out of the depths have I cried to thee, O Lord.
2 O Lord, hearken to my voice; let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
3 If thou, O Lord, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?
4 For with thee is * Or, propitiation. forgiveness: for thy † See Gen 31. 53. name's sake
5 have I waited for thee, O Lord, my soul has waited for thy word.
6 My soul has hoped in the Lord; from the morning watch till night.
7 Let Israel hope in the Lord: for with the Lord is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.
8 And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
