Psalms 130:4

ForgivenessGod's holiness

2 O Lord, hear my voice; let Your ears be attentive to my plea for mercy.

3 If You, O LORD, kept track of iniquities, then who, O Lord, could stand?

But with You there is forgiveness, so that You may be feared.

5 I wait for the LORD; my soul does wait, and in His word I put my hope.

6 My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning— more than watchmen wait for the morning.
