2 O Lord, hear my voice.Let your ears be open to my pleas for mercy.
3 O Lord, who would be able to standif you kept a record of sins?
4 But with you there is forgivenessso that you can be feared.
5 I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,and with hope I wait for his word.
6 My soul waits for the Lordmore than those who watch for the morning,more than those who watch for the morning.
7 O Israel, put your hope in the Lord,because with the Lord there is mercyand with him there is unlimited forgiveness.
8 He will rescue Israel from all its sins.
