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.

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

1 Out of the depths do I call upon 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.

2Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.

2 Lord, hear my voice; let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.

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

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

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

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