130 A song for walking uphill to Yerushalem.

130 I call out to you, Yahweh—

out from the depths.

2 My master, listen to what I’m saying.

Pay attention to my pleas for mercy.

3 Yahweh if you kept a record of our disobedience,

master, who could stand before you?

4 But you do have a willingness to forgive

so that you might be respected.

5 I wait for Yahweh to rescue me—

I put my trust in what he’s said.

6 I wait for my master to help me—

more eagerly than the night guard looks forward to the morning.

7 Yisra’el, put your hope in Yahweh.

Yahweh is merciful and very willing to get us out of our situation.

8 He’s the one who’ll pay the price for all Yisrael’s sins

so we can be free.[ref]
