130:1 A song for those journeying to worship. From the depths of disaster I appeal to You, O Eternal One:
130:2 Lord, hear my cry! Attune Your ears to my humble prayer!
130:3 If You, Eternal One, recorded each offense, Lord, who on earth could stand innocent?
130:4 But with You forgiveness exists; that’s why true respect of You might flow.
130:5 So I wait for the Eternal—my soul awaits rescue— and I put my hope in His transforming word.
130:6 My soul waits for the Lord to break into the world more than night watchmen expect the break of day, even more than night watchmen expect the break of day.
130:7 O Israel, ground your hope in the Eternal. For in the Eternal lives the most loyal love, and with Him comes the most abundant redemption.
130:8 He will ransom Israel from all the sinful acts that stole you away.
