Psalms 130

1The Psalmist in distress prayeth to God, trusting in his mercy for pardon: 5his own patience in hope: 7he exhorteth Israel to hope in God.


0 aA Song of degrees.

1 OUT bof the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD.

2 Lord, chear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.

3 dIf thou, LORD, shouldest emark iniquities, O Lord, fwho shall stand?

4 But there is gforgiveness with thee, hthat thou mayest be feared.

5 I iwait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and jin his word do I hope.

6 kMy soul waiteth for the Lord more than they 1that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.

7 Let lIsrael hope in the LORD: mfor with the LORD there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.

8 And nhe shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
