Psalms 130
The psalmist cries out to God from the depths, asking for forgiveness and acknowledging that if God were to mark iniquities, no one could stand. However, the psalmist perseveres in hope, trusting in God's law and word. The psalmist encourages Israel to hope in the Lord, knowing that with God there is mercy and abundant redemption. Ultimately, the psalmist expresses confidence that God will redeem Israel from all its iniquities.
A Canticle in steps. From the depths, I have cried out to you, O LordO Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my supplicationIf you, O Lord, were to heed iniquities, who, O Lord, could persevereFor with you, there is forgiveness, and because of your law, I persevered with you, Lord. My soul has persevered in his wordMy soul has hoped in the LordFrom the morning watch, even until night, let Israel hope in the LordFor with the Lord there is mercy, and with him there is bountiful redemptionAnd he will redeem Israel from all his iniquities
