Psalms

Psalm 129

A prayer of a sinner trusting in the mercies of God. The 6th penitential psalm.

  1. 1

    A gradual canticle. Out of the depths I have cried to thee, O Lord:

  2. 2

    Lord, hear my voice. Let thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.

  3. 3

    If thou, O Lord, wilt mark iniquities; Lord, who shall stand?

  4. 4

    For with thee there is merciful forgiveness: and by reason of thy law, I have waited for thee, O Lord. My soul hath relied on his word: 5 my soul hath hoped in the Lord.

  5. 5

    My soul hath hoped in the Lord.

  6. 6

    From the morning watch even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord.

  7. 7

    Because with the Lord there is mercy; and with him plentiful redemption.

  8. 8

    And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
