Reflection - Psalm 130


Psalm 130
A song of ascents.


1 Out of the depths I cry to you, O LORD;



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



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



4 But with you there is forgiveness; therefore you are feared.



5 I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, and in his word I put my hope.



6 My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning, more than watchmen wait for the morning.



7 O 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.
