A Song of Degrees. Out of the depths have I cried to thee, O Lord.
—
O Lord, hearken to my voice; let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
—
If thou, O Lord, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?
—
For with thee is forgiveness: for thy name's sake
—
have I waited for thee, O Lord, my soul has waited for thy word.
—
My soul has hoped in the Lord; from the morning watch till night.
—
Let Israel hope in the Lord: for with the Lord is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.
—
And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
