Psalms 130 GNV
Summary: One of the seven traditional penitential psalms, a Song of Ascents known by its Latin title De Profundis, opening with a cry from the depths of despair: "Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD" (v. 1). It reflects on the impossibility of standing before God if sins were counted, and rests instead on forgiveness: "But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared" (v. 4). It closes with an image of intense, patient hope: "My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning" (v. 6), urging Israel to hope in the LORD's plentiful redemption.
1A song of degrees. Out of the deepe places haue I called vnto thee, O Lord.
2Lord, heare my voyce: let thine eares attend to the voyce of my prayers.
3If thou, O Lord, straightly markest iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?
4But mercie is with thee, that thou mayest be feared.
5I haue waited on the Lord: my soule hath waited, and I haue trusted in his worde.
6My soule waiteth on the Lord more then the morning watch watcheth for the morning.
7Let Israel waite on the Lord: for with the Lord is mercie, and with him is great redemption.
8And he shall redeeme Israel from all his iniquities.
