A song of ascents. From the deep water I cry out to you, O Lord.

If you, O Lord, were to keep track of sins, O Lord, who could stand before you?

I rely on the Lord, I rely on him with my whole being; I wait for his assuring word.

But you are willing to forgive, so that you might be honored.

O Israel, hope in the Lord, for the Lord exhibits loyal love, and is more than willing to deliver.

I yearn for the Lord, more than watchmen do for the morning, yes, more than watchmen do for the morning.

O Lord, listen to me! Pay attention to my plea for mercy!

He will deliver Israel from all the consequences of their sins.
