| 1 | Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Jehovah. |
| 2 | Lord, hear my voice: Let thine ears be attentive To the voice of my supplications. |
| 3 | If thou, Jehovah, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand? |
| 4 | But there is forgiveness with thee, That thou mayest be feared. |
| 5 | I wait for Jehovah, my soul doth wait, And in his word do I hope. |
| 6 | My soul [waiteth] for the Lord More than watchmen [wait] for the morning; [Yea, more than] watchmen for the morning. |
| 7 | O Israel, hope in Jehovah; For with Jehovah there is lovingkindness, And with him is plenteous redemption. |
| 8 | And he will redeem Israel From all his iniquities. Psalm 131 A Song of Ascents; of David. |
