[1] [[A Song of degrees.]] Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD. [2] Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications. [3] If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? [4] But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared. [5] I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope. [6] My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning. [7] Let Israel hope in the LORD: there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.
