The Book of Psalms

A Canticle in steps. From the depths, I have cried out to you, O Lord.

O Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.

If you, O Lord, were to heed iniquities, who, O Lord, could persevere?

For with you, there is forgiveness, and because of your law, I persevered with you, Lord. My soul has persevered in his word.

My soul has hoped in the Lord.

From the morning watch, even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord.

For with the Lord there is mercy, and with him there is bountiful redemption.

And he will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

Out of the depths I have cried to you, LORD.

Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.

If you, LORD, kept a record of sins, Lord, who could stand?

But there is forgiveness with you, therefore you are feared.

I wait for the LORD. My soul waits. I hope in his word.

My soul longs for the Lord more than watchmen long for the morning, more than watchmen for the morning.

Israel, hope in the LORD, for there is loving kindness with the LORD. Abundant redemption is with him.

He will redeem Israel from all their sins.
