1 耶和华啊！ 我从深处向你呼求。（本节在《马索拉抄本》包括细字标题） 2 主啊！ 求你听我的声音， 求你留心听我恳求的声音。 3 耶和华啊！ 如果你究察罪孽， 主啊！ 谁能站立得住呢？ 4 但你有赦免之恩， 为要使人敬畏你。 5 我等候耶和华， 我的心等候他， 我仰望他的话。 6 我的心等候主， 比守夜的等候天亮还迫切， 比守夜的等候天亮还迫切。 7 以色列啊！ 你要仰望耶和华， 因为耶和华有慈爱， 也有丰盛的救恩。 8 他必救赎以色列， 脱离一切罪孽。

1 A Song of the Ascents. From depths I have called Thee, Jehovah.2 Lord, hearken to my voice, Thine ears are attentive to the voice of my supplications.3 If iniquities Thou dost observe, O Lord, who doth stand?4 But with Thee [is] forgiveness, that Thou mayest be feared.5 I hoped [for] Jehovah -- hoped hath my soul, And for His word I have waited.6 My soul [is] for the Lord, More than those watching for morning, Watching for morning!7 Israel doth wait on Jehovah, For with Jehovah [is] kindness, And abundant with Him [is] redemption.8 And He doth redeem Israel from all his iniquities!
