1

Out of the depths I cry to you, Lord;

2

Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to my cry for mercy.

3

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

4

But with you there is forgiveness, so that we can, with reverence, serve you.

5

I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in his word I put my hope.

6

I wait for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning, more than watchmen wait for the morning.

7

Israel, put your hope in the Lord, for with the Lord is unfailing love and with him is full redemption.

8

He himself will redeem Israel from all their sins.
