1 Out of the depths of despair I have cried to you, O Jehovah.

2 Jehovah, do hear my voice! Let your ears listen to the voice of my supplications.

3 If You, Jehovah, should record our sins, O Jehovah, who could stand?

4 But there is forgiveness with you, that you may be reverenced.

5 I wait for Jehovah, I do wait. And in his word I do hope.

6 I wait for Jehovah more than the watchmen for the morning. Yes, more than the watchmen for the morning.

7 O Israel hope in Jehovah! For with Jehovah there is loving kindness. With him is abundant redemption.

8 He will save his people Israel from all their sins.
