Psalms 129

¹A gradual Canticle. From the depths I have cried to thee, o Lord:

²Lord hear my voice: Let thine ears be intent to the voice of my petition.

³If thou shalt observe iniquities, o Lord: Lord who shall sustain it?

⁴Because with thee there is propitiation: and for thy law I have expected thee, o Lord. My soul hath expected in his word:

⁵my soul hath hoped in our Lord.

⁶From the morning watch even until night: let Israel hope in our Lord.

⁷Because with our Lord there is mercy: and with him plenteous redemption.

⁸And he shall redeem Israel, from all his iniquities.
