A song of ascents. Out of the depths I cry to You , O LORD !
O Lord , hear my voice ; let Your ears be attentive ... to my plea for mercy.
If You , O LORD , kept track of iniquities , (then) who , O Lord , could stand ?
But with You there is forgiveness , so that You may be feared.
I wait for the LORD ; my soul does wait , and in His word I put my hope.
My soul (waits) for the Lord more than watchmen (wait) for the morning — more than watchmen (wait) for the morning.
O Israel , put your hope in the LORD , for with the LORD is loving devotion , and with Him is redemption in abundance.
