✧A Song of Ascents. Out 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.
