Psalm 130:5-7

Contemporary English Version

⁵ With all my heart,
I am waiting, Lord, for you!
    I trust your promises.
⁶ I wait for you more eagerly
than a soldier on guard duty
    waits for the dawn.
Yes, I wait more eagerly
than a soldier on guard duty
    waits for the dawn.

⁷ Israel, trust the Lord!
God is always merciful
    and has the power to save you.
