|
1 A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths I have cried to You, O Lord;
|
1 Out of the depths I cry to you, O LORD;
|
|
2 Lord, hear my voice! Let Your ears be attentive To the voice of my supplications.
|
2 O Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to my cry for mercy.
|
|
3 If You, Lord, should mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand?
|
3 If you, O LORD, kept a record of sins, O Lord, who could stand?
|
|
4 But there is forgiveness with You, That You may be feared.
|
4 But with you there is forgiveness; therefore you are feared.
|
|
5 I wait for the Lord, my soul waits, And in His word I do hope.
|
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 those who watch for the morning-- Yes, more than those who watch for the morning.
|
6 My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning, more than watchmen wait for the morning.
|
|
7 O Israel, hope in the Lord; For with the Lord there is mercy, And with Him is abundant redemption.
|
7 O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is unfailing love and with him is full redemption.
|
|
8 And He shall redeem Israel From all his iniquities.
|
8 He himself will redeem Israel from all their sins.
