Psalm 130-131
Christian Standard Bible
Psalm 130
Awaiting Redemption
A song of ascents.
1 Out of the depths I call to you, Lord!(A)
2 Lord, listen to my voice;
let your ears be attentive
to my cry for help.(B)
3 Lord, if you kept an account of iniquities,
Lord, who could stand?(C)
4 But with you there is forgiveness,
so that you may be revered.(D)
5 I wait for the Lord; I wait
and put my hope in his word.(E)
6 I wait for the Lord
more than watchmen for the morning—
more than watchmen for the morning.(F)
7 Israel, put your hope in the Lord.(G)
For there is faithful love with the Lord,
and with him is redemption in abundance.(H)
8 And he will redeem Israel
from all its iniquities.(I)
Psalm 131
A Childlike Spirit
A song of ascents. Of David.
1 Lord, my heart is not proud;
my eyes are not haughty.(J)
I do not get involved with things
too great or too wondrous for me.(K)
2 Instead, I have calmed and quieted my soul
like a weaned child with its mother;
my soul is like a weaned child.(L)
3 Israel, put your hope in the Lord,
both now and forever.(M)
