1 O ut of the depths have I cried to You, O Lord.

¶ Out of the depths I cry unto thee, O LORD.

2 L ord, hear my voice; let Your ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.

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

3 I f You, Lord, should keep account of and treat sins, O Lord, who could stand?

If thou, O LORD, should mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall endure?

4 B ut there is forgiveness with You, that You may be reverently feared and worshiped.

Therefore there is forgiveness close to thee, that thou may be feared.

5 I wait for the Lord, I expectantly wait, and in His word do I hope.

¶ I have waited for the LORD, my soul has waited, and for his word I have waited.

6 I am looking and waiting for the Lord more than watchmen for the morning, I say, more than watchmen for the morning.

My soul has waited for the Lord more than those that watch for the morning: I say, more than those that watch for the morning.

7 O Israel, hope in the Lord! For with the Lord there is mercy and loving-kindness, and with Him is plenteous redemption.

Let Israel wait for the LORD; for with the LORD there is mercy and plenteous redemption close to him.

8 A nd He will redeem Israel from all their iniquities.

And he shall ransom Israel from all his sins.
