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 Ascents.
1Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Jehovah.
2Lord, hear my voice:
Let thine ears be attentive
To the voice of my supplications.
3If thou, Jehovah, shouldest mark iniquities,
O Lord, who could stand?
4But there is forgiveness with thee,
That thou mayest be feared.
5I wait for Jehovah, my soul doth wait,
And in his word do I hope.
6My soul waiteth for the Lord
More than watchmen wait for the morning;
Yea, more than watchmen for the morning.
7O Israel, hope in Jehovah;
For with Jehovah there is lovingkindness,
And with him is plenteous redemption.
8And he will redeem Israel
From all his iniquities.
