Psalms 130
Song of Ascents
1 From the depths I call to you, Yahweh,
2 Lord, listen to my cry for help! Listen compassionately to my pleading!
3 If you never overlooked our sins, Yahweh, Lord, could anyone survive?
4 But you do forgive us: and for that we revere you.
5 I wait for Yahweh, my soul waits for him, I rely on his promise,
6 my soul relies on the Lord more than a watchman on the coming of dawn.
7 Let Israel rely on Yahweh as much as the watchman on the dawn! For it is with Yahweh that mercy is to be found, and a generous redemption;
8 it is he who redeems Israel from all their sins.
