Psalms 130 KJV
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.
1Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD.
2Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.
3If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?
4But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.
5I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.
6My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.
7Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.
8And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
