1A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths I cry to You, O He-Who-Is!

2O Lord, hear my voice; let Your ears be attentive to my plea for mercy.

3If You, O He-Who-Is, kept track of iniquities, then who, O Lord, could stand?

4But with You there is forgiveness, so that You may be feared.

5I wait for He-Who-Is; my soul does wait, and in His word I put my hope.

6My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning— more than watchmen wait for the morning.

7O Strives-with-God, put your hope in He-Who-Is, for with He-Who-Is is loving devotion, and with Him is redemption in abundance.

8And He will redeem Strives-with-God from all iniquity.
