Psalms
Chapter 129
- 1
Out of the depths I cry to thee, O Lord;
- 2
Master, listen to my voice; let but thy ears be attentive to the voice that calls on thee for pardon.
- 3
If thou, Lord, wilt keep record of our iniquities, Master, who has strength to bear it?
- 4
Ah, but with thee there is forgiveness; be thy name ever revered.
- 5
I wait for the Lord, for his word of promise my soul waits;
- 6
patient my soul waits, as ever watchman that looked for the day. Patient as watchman at dawn,
- 7
for the Lord Israel waits, the Lord with whom there is mercy, with whom is abundant power to ransom.
- 8
He it is that will ransom Israel from all his iniquities.
