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.

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

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.

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

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

4(not in this translation)

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

5(not in this translation)

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

6(not in this translation)

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

7(not in this translation)

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

8(not in this translation)

8And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
