Salmos 130:2 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 130:2

Lord, hear my voice
His prayer, which was vocal: God is a God hearing prayer; sometimes his people think he does not hear them; but he always does, and in his own time answers; for to hear prayer with him is to answer it; which he does likewise in his own way as well as time; and not always in the way and at the time his people would have him;

let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications;
his prayers put up in an humble suppliant manner, for grace and mercy; not pleading merit and righteousness: these he desires God would hearken to and hear, listen unto, bow and incline his ears, as he is sometimes said to do; which is a wonderful instance of his condescension.

Salmos 130:2 In-Context

1 Das profundezas clamo a ti, ó Senhor.

2 Senhor, escuta a minha voz; estejam os teus ouvidos atentos � voz das minhas súplicas.

3 Se tu, Senhor, observares as iniqüidades, Senhor, quem subsistirá?

4 Mas contigo está o perdão, para que sejas temido.

5 Aguardo ao Senhor; a minha alma o aguarda, e espero na sua palavra.
