Tap a verse to highlight it

1 Out of the depths I have cried to thee, O Jehovah.

2 Lord, hear my voice. Let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.

3 If thou, Jehovah, should note iniquities, O Lord, who could stand?

4 But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou may be feared.

5 I wait for Jehovah. My soul waits, and in his word do I hope,

6 my soul for the Lord more than watchmen for the morning, watchmen for the morning.

7 O Israel, hope in Jehovah, for with Jehovah there is loving kindness, and with him is plentiful redemption.

8 And he will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
