Thi Thiên

A song of ascents.

1Out of the depthsI cry to You, O LORD!

2O Lord, hear my voice;let Your ears be attentive to my plea for mercy.

3If You, O LORD, kept track of iniquities,then who, O Lord, could stand?

4But with You there is forgiveness,so that You may be feared.

5I wait for the LORD; my soul does wait,and in His word I put my hope.

6My soul waits for the Lordmore than watchmen wait for the morning— more than watchmen wait for the morning.

7O Israel, put your hope in the LORD,for with the LORD is loving devotion, and with Him is redemption in abundance.

8And He will redeem Israelfrom all iniquity.

1Out of the depths I have cried to you, LORD.

2Lord, hear my voice.Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.

3If you, LORD,kept a record of sins,Lord, who could stand?

4But there is forgiveness with you,therefore you are feared.

5I wait for the LORD.My soul waits. I hope in his word.

6My soul longs for the Lord more than watchmen long for the morning,more than watchmen for the morning.

7Israel, hope in the LORD,for there is loving kindness with the LORD. Abundant redemption is with him.

8He will redeem Israel from all their sins.
