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.

1A Song of the Ascents. From depths I have called Thee, 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, hearken to my voice, Thine ears are attentive to the voice of my supplications.

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

3If iniquities Thou dost observe, O Lord, who doth stand?

4(not in this translation)

4But with Thee <FI>is<Fi> forgiveness, that Thou mayest be feared.

5(not in this translation)

5I hoped <FI>for<Fi> Jehovah--hoped hath my soul, And for His word I have waited.

6(not in this translation)

6My soul <FI>is<Fi> for the Lord, More than those watching for morning, Watching for morning!

7(not in this translation)

7Israel doth wait on Jehovah, For with Jehovah <FI>is<Fi> kindness, And abundant with Him <FI>is<Fi> redemption.

8(not in this translation)

8And He doth redeem Israel from all his iniquities!
