International Standard Version | New Living Translation |
1I cry to you from the depths, LORD, | 1From the depths of despair, O LORD, I call for your help. |
2Lord, listen to my voice; let your ears pay attention to what I ask of you! | 2Hear my cry, O Lord. Pay attention to my prayer. |
3LORD, if you were to record iniquities, Lord, who could remain standing? | 3LORD, if you kept a record of our sins, who, O Lord, could ever survive? |
4But with you there is forgiveness, so that you may be feared. | 4But you offer forgiveness, that we might learn to fear you. |
5I wait for the LORD; my soul waits, and I will hope in his word. | 5I am counting on the LORD; yes, I am counting on him. I have put my hope in his word. |
6My soul looks to the Lord more than watchmen look for the morning— more, indeed, than watchmen for the morning. | 6I long for the Lord more than sentries long for the dawn, yes, more than sentries long for the dawn. |
7Israel, hope in the LORD! For with the LORD there is gracious love, along with abundant redemption. | 7O Israel, hope in the LORD; for with the LORD there is unfailing love. His redemption overflows. |
8And he will redeem Israel from all its sins. | 8He himself will redeem Israel from every kind of sin. |
