A Song of Ascents.
Out of the depths I have cried to You, O Lord.

If You, Lord, should mark iniquities,
O Lord, who could stand?

I wait for the Lord, my soul does wait,
And in His word do I hope.

But there is forgiveness with You,
That You may be feared.

O Israel, hope in the Lord;
For with the Lord there is lovingkindness,
And with Him is abundant redemption.

My soul waits for the Lord
More than the watchmen for the morning;
Indeed, more than the watchmen for the morning.

Lord, hear my voice!
Let Your ears be attentive
To the voice of my supplications.

And He will redeem Israel
From all his iniquities.
