Psalm 130 — Compared

¹Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD.

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

³If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?

⁴But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.

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

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

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

⁸And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

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.
