1A Song of Ascents.
2O My Lord! hearken thou unto my voice,—Let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications,
3If, iniquities, thou shouldest mark, O Yah, O My Lord, who could stand?
4But, with thee, is forgiveness, that thou mayest be revered.
5 I have waited for Yahweh, My soul hath waited for his word;
6I have hoped, O my soul, for My Lord, more than they who watch for the morning, who watch for the morning.
7Wait, O Israel, for Yahweh,—for, with Yahweh, is lovingkindness, and there aboundeth with him—redemption.
8He, therefore, will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
