Orthodox Jewish Bible OJB
1 <A Song of the going up.> Out of the deep have I sent up my cry to you, O Lord.
1
30 (Shir HaMa’alot) Out of the depths have I cried unto Thee, Hashem.
2 Lord, let my voice come before you: let your ears be awake to the voice of my prayer.
2
Adonoi, hear my voice; let Thine ears be attentive to the voice of my techinnot (supplications).
3 O Jah, if you took note of every sin, who would go free?
3
If Thou, Hashem, shouldest record iniquities, Adonoi, who could stand?
4 But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be feared.
4
But there is selichah (forgiveness) with Thee; therefore, Thou art feared.
5 I am waiting for the Lord, my soul is waiting for him, and my hope is in his word.
5
I wait for Hashem, my nefesh doth wait, and in His Devar do I hope.
6 My soul is watching for the Lord more than those who are watching for the morning; yes, more than the watchers for the morning.
6
My nefesh waiteth for Adonoi more than the shomrim that watch for the boker; I say, more than the shomrim that watch for the boker.
7 O Israel, have hope in the Lord; for with the Lord is mercy and full salvation.
7
Let Yisroel hope in Hashem; for with Hashem there is chesed, and with Him is plenteous pedut (redemption).
8 And he will make Israel free from all his sins.
8
And He shall redeem Yisroel from all his iniquities.
