1 O Lord, I have cried to You out of the deep places.

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

2 L ord, hear my voice! Let Your ears hear the voice of my prayers.

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

3 I f you, Lord, should write down our sins, O Lord, who could stand?

If You, Lord, should keep account of and treat sins, O Lord, who could stand?

4 B ut You are the One Who forgives, so You are honored with fear.

But there is forgiveness with You, that You may be reverently feared and worshiped.

5 I wait for the Lord. My soul waits and I hope in His Word.

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

6 M y soul waits for the Lord more than one who watches for the morning; yes, more than one who watches for the morning.

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

7 O Israel, hope in the Lord! For there is loving-kindness with the Lord. With Him we are saved for sure.

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

8 A nd He will save Israel from all their sins.

And He will redeem Israel from all their iniquities.
