| New King James Version | New International Version |
| 1A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths I have cried to You, O LORD; | 1A song of ascents. Out of the depths I cry to you, LORD; |
| 2Lord, hear my voice! Let Your ears be attentive To the voice of my supplications. | 2Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to my cry for mercy. |
| 3If You, LORD, should mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand? | 3If you, LORD, kept a record of sins, Lord, who could stand? |
| 4But there is forgiveness with You, That You may be feared. | 4But with you there is forgiveness, so that we can, with reverence, serve you. |
| 5I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, And in His word I do hope. | 5I wait for the LORD, my whole being waits, and in his word I put my hope. |
| 6My soul waits for the Lord More than those who watch for the morning— Yes, more than those who watch for the morning. | 6I wait for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning, more than watchmen wait for the morning. |
| 7O Israel, hope in the LORD; For with the LORD there is mercy, And with Him is abundant redemption. | 7Israel, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is unfailing love and with him is full redemption. |
| 8And He shall redeem Israel From all his iniquities. | 8He himself will redeem Israel from all their sins. |
