Psalms 130
Easy-to-Read Version, 2006
- 1LORD, I am in deep trouble, so I am calling to you for help.
- 2My Lord, listen to me. Listen to my cry for help.
- 3LORD, if you punished people for all their sins, no one would be left alive.
- 4But you forgive people, so they fear and respect you.
- 5I am waiting for the LORD to help me. My soul waits for him. I trust what he says.
- 6I am waiting for my Lord, like a guard waiting and waiting for the morning to come.
- 7Israel, trust in the LORD. The LORD is the one who is faithful and true. He saves us again and again,
- 8and he is the one who will save the people of Israel from all their sins.
