Psalm 130 - Christian Standard Bible (CSB)

Psalm 130

Awaiting Redemption

A song of ascents.

1 Out of the depths I call to you, Lord!(A)
2 Lord, listen to my voice;
let your ears be attentive
to my cry for help.(B)

3 Lord, if you kept an account of iniquities,
Lord, who could stand?(C)
4 But with you there is forgiveness,
so that you may be revered.(D)

5 I wait for the Lord; I wait
and put my hope in his word.(E)
6 I wait for the Lord
more than watchmen for the morning—
more than watchmen for the morning.(F)

7 Israel, put your hope in the Lord.(G)
For there is faithful love with the Lord,
and with him is redemption in abundance.(H)
8 And he will redeem Israel
from all its iniquities.(I)
