1 From the depths I call to you, LORD.
2 Lord, listen to my voice! Let your ears pay attention to the sound of my pleading.
3 If you, LORD, kept count of iniquities—Lord, who could stand?
4 But forgiveness is with you, so that you may be feared.
5 I wait for the LORD; my soul waits, and I put my hope in his word.
6 My soul looks for the Lord more than watchmen for the morning—yes, more than watchmen for the morning.
7 Israel, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is steadfast love, and with him is abundant redemption.
8 He himself will redeem Israel from all its iniquities.
