Psalms 130
Touchez un verset pour le surligner

1 Cantique des degrés. Je t’ai invoqué des lieux profonds, ô Éternel!

2 Seigneur! écoute ma voix; que tes oreilles soient attentives à la voix de mes supplications.

3 Ô Jah! si tu prends garde aux iniquités, Seigneur, qui subsistera?

4 Mais il y a pardon auprès de toi, afin que tu sois craint.

5 J’ai attendu l’ Éternel; mon âme l’a attendu, et j’ai eu mon attente en sa parole.

6 Mon âme [attend] le Seigneur, plus que les sentinelles [n’attendent] le matin, que les sentinelles [n’attendent] le matin.

7 Israël, attends-toi à l’ Éternel; car auprès de l’ Éternel est la bonté, et il y a rédemption en abondance auprès de lui;

8 Et lui rachètera Israël de toutes ses iniquités.

Questions Fréquentes

What is Psalm 130 about?
It's a cry for help "out of the depths" (v.1), moving from confessing that no one could stand if God marked iniquities (v.3) to confidence that "there is forgiveness with thee" (v.4).
What does verse 6 compare the psalmist's waiting to?
V.6 says his soul waits for the LORD "more than they that watch for the morning," repeated twice for emphasis, describing eager, patient hope.
How does the psalm end?
Verses 7-8 extend the psalmist's personal hope to all Israel, promising that "with the LORD there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption" and that he "shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities."

The psalmist's patient hope, waiting "more than they that watch for the morning," closely parallels the confident trust of Psalms 33:20. Read more songs of ascent on the Psalms overview, or move ahead to the quiet humility of Psalms 131.
