Psalm 130

1. From the depths of despair, O LORD,

I call for your help.

2. Hear my cry, O Lord.

Pay attention to my prayer.

3. LORD, if you kept a record of our sins,

who, O Lord, could ever survive?

4. But you offer forgiveness,

that we might learn to fear you.

5. I am counting on the LORD;

yes, I am counting on him.

I have put my hope in his word.

6. I long for the Lord

more than sentries long for the dawn,

yes, more than sentries long for the dawn.

7. O Israel, hope in the LORD; for with the LORD there is unfailing love.

His redemption overflows.

8. He himself will redeem Israel

from every kind of sin.
