Psalms 130

130

Hope for the Redemption of Yahweh

A song of ascents.#The Hebrew Bible counts the superscription as the first verse of the psalm

1Out of the depths I call to you, O Yahweh.

2“O Lord, hear my voice.

Let your ears be attentive

to the voice of my supplications.

3If you, O Yah,#A shortened form of “Yahweh” should keep track of#Literally “keep” iniquities,

O Lord, who could stand?

4But with you is forgiveness,

so that you may be feared.”

5I await Yahweh; my soul awaits,

and I wait#Or “hope,” here and v. 7, though the Hebrew uses a different verbal stem in v. 7 for his word.

6My soul waits for the Lord

more than watchmen for the morning.

Yes, more than watchmen for the morning.

7O Israel, wait#Or “hope” for Yahweh.

For with Yahweh there is loyal love,

and with him there is abundant redemption.

8And he will redeem Israel

from all its iniquities.
