Psalms 130

1A gradual canticle of David. Lord, my heart is not exalted: nor are my eyes lofty. Neither have I walked in great matters, nor in wonderful things above me.

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

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

2If I was not humbly minded, but exalted my soul: As a child that is weaned is towards his mother, so reward in my soul.

2Lord, hear my voice: Let thine ears be attentive To the voice of my supplications.

2Lord, hear my voice: Let thine ears be attentive To the voice of my supplications.

3Let Israel hope in the Lord, from henceforth now and for ever.

3If thou, Jehovah, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand?
