1Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Jehovah. 2Lord, hear my voice: Let thine ears be attentive To the voice of my supplications. 3If thou, Jehovah, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand? 4But there is forgiveness with thee, That thou mayest be feared. 5I wait for Jehovah, my soul doth wait, And in his word do I hope. 6My soul [waiteth] for the Lord More than watchmen [wait] for the morning; [Yea, more than] watchmen for the morning. 7O Israel, hope in Jehovah; For with Jehovah there is lovingkindness, And with him is plenteous redemption. 8And he will redeem Israel From all his iniquities. Psalm 131 A Song of Ascents; of David.
