1 A Canticle in steps. From the depths, I have cried out to you, O Lord. 2 O Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication. 3 If you, O Lord, were to heed iniquities, who, O Lord, could persevere? 4 For with you, there is forgiveness, and because of your law, I persevered with you, Lord. My soul has persevered in his word. 5 My soul has hoped in the Lord. 6 From the morning watch, even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord. 7 For with the Lord there is mercy, and with him there is bountiful redemption. 8 And he will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
