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

Out of the depths I have cried to you, Yahweh.

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 petitions.

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

If you, Yah, kept a record of sins, 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, therefore you are feared.

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

I wait for Yahweh. My soul waits. I hope in his word.

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.

My soul longs for the Lord more than watchmen long for the morning; 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.

Israel, hope in Yahweh, for with Yahweh there is loving kindness. With him is abundant redemption.

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

He will redeem Israel from all their sins.
