Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD.

Verse 1 is found in chapter 130 of Psalms. Psalm 130 is a plea from the depths combining confession, waiting, and hope. The psalmist recognizes that no one could stand before God if he kept their iniquities for judgment without offering mercy. Precisely for this reason, he waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for morning. The conclusion broadens personal hope toward Israel and grounds forgiveness in abundant divine redemption.

Ein Lied im höhern Chor. Aus der Tiefe rufe ich, HERR, zu dir.
De los profundos, oh Jehová, a ti clamo.
Desde las profundidades he clamado a ti, Jehová.
Cantique des degrés. Du fond de l'abîme je t'invoque, ô Eternel!
Cantico di Maalot. SIGNORE, io grido a te di luoghi profondi.
DAS profundezas a ti clamo, ó SENHOR.
耶和華啊, 我從深處求告你!
