Psalm 130, side by side
Two versions of the same chapter. Each row is one verse, so you can see how the wording changes.
1A song of ascents. Out of the depths I cry to You, O LORD!
1Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD.
2O Lord, hear my voice; let Your ears be attentive to my plea for mercy.
2Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.
3If You, O LORD, kept track of iniquities, then who, O Lord, could stand?
3If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?
4But with You there is forgiveness, so that You may be feared.
4But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.
5I wait for the LORD; my soul does wait, and in His word I put my hope.
5I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.
6My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning— more than watchmen wait for the morning.
6My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.
7O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is loving devotion, and with Him is redemption in abundance.
7Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.
8And He will redeem Israel from all iniquity.
8And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
