| New King James Version | NET Bible |
| 1A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths I have cried to You, O LORD; | 1A song of ascents. From the deep water I cry out to you, O LORD. |
| 2Lord, hear my voice! Let Your ears be attentive To the voice of my supplications. | 2O Lord, listen to me! Pay attention to my plea for mercy! |
| 3If You, LORD, should mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand? | 3If you, O LORD, were to keep track of sins, O Lord, who could stand before you? |
| 4But there is forgiveness with You, That You may be feared. | 4But you are willing to forgive, so that you might be honored. |
| 5I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, And in His word I do hope. | 5I rely on the LORD, I rely on him with my whole being; I wait for his assuring word. |
| 6My soul waits for the Lord More than those who watch for the morning— Yes, more than those who watch for the morning. | 6I yearn for the Lord, more than watchmen do for the morning, yes, more than watchmen do for the morning. |
| 7O Israel, hope in the LORD; For with the LORD there is mercy, And with Him is abundant redemption. | 7O Israel, hope in the LORD, for the LORD exhibits loyal love, and is more than willing to deliver. |
| 8And He shall redeem Israel From all his iniquities. | 8He will deliver Israel from all the consequences of their sins. |
