 1 A Song of Degrees. 
 Out of the depths have I cried to thee, O Lord.   
 2 O Lord, hearken to my voice;  
Let thine ears be attentive  
To the voice of my supplication.   
 3 If thou, O Lord, shouldest mark iniquities,  
O Lord, who shall stand?   
 4 For with thee is forgiveness:  
For thy name’s sake   5 have I waited for thee, O Lord,  
My soul has waited for thy word.   
 6 My soul has hoped in the Lord;  
From the morning watch till night.   
 7 Let Israel hope in the Lord:  
For with the Lord is mercy,  
And with him is plenteous redemption.   
 8 And he shall redeem Israel  
From all his iniquities.
