Psalms 130
130
(A song for worship.)
Trusting the Lord in Times of Trouble
1From a sea of troubles
I cry out to you, Lord.
2Won't you please listen
as I beg for mercy?
3If you kept record of our sins,
no one could last long.
4But you forgive us,
and so we will worship you.
5With all my heart,
I am waiting, Lord, for you!
I trust your promises.
6I wait for you more eagerly
than a soldier on guard duty
waits for the dawn.
Yes, I wait more eagerly
than a soldier on guard duty
waits for the dawn.
7Israel, trust the Lord!
God is always merciful
and has the power to save you.
8 #
Mt 1.21; Titus 2.14. Israel, the Lord will save you
from all your sins.

Psalms 130
130
A Song of the Ascents.
1From depths I have called Thee, Jehovah.
2Lord, hearken to my voice, Thine ears are attentive to the voice of my supplications.
3If iniquities Thou dost observe, O Lord, who doth stand?
4But with Thee [is] forgiveness, that Thou mayest be feared.
5I hoped [for] Jehovah — hoped hath my soul, And for His word I have waited.
6My soul [is] for the Lord, More than those watching for morning, Watching for morning!
7Israel doth wait on Jehovah, For with Jehovah [is] kindness, And abundant with Him [is] redemption.
8And He doth redeem Israel from all his iniquities!
