|
1 A song of ascents. By David: ADONAI, I call to you from the depths;
|
1 Out of the depths I cry to you, O LORD;
|
|
2 hear my cry, Adonai! Let your ears pay attention to the sound of my pleading.
|
2 O Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to my cry for mercy.
|
|
3 Yah, if you kept a record of sins, who, Adonai, could stand?
|
3 If you, O LORD, kept a record of sins, O Lord, who could stand?
|
|
4 But with you there is forgiveness, so that you will be feared.
|
4 But with you there is forgiveness; therefore you are feared.
|
|
5 I wait longingly for ADONAI; I put my hope in his word.
|
5 I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, and in his word I put my hope.
|
|
6 Everything in me waits for Adonai more than guards on watch wait for morning, more than guards on watch wait for morning.
|
6 My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning, more than watchmen wait for the morning.
|
|
7 Isra'el, put your hope in ADONAI! For grace is found with ADONAI, and with him is unlimited redemption.
|
7 O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is unfailing love and with him is full redemption.
|
|
8 He will redeem Isra'el from all their wrongdoings.
|
8 He himself will redeem Israel from all their sins.
