Scripture<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Psalm 130
A Song of Ascents.
Out of the depths I cry to you, O Lord.
Lord, hear my voice!
Let your ears be attentive
to the voice of my supplications!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you, O Lord, should mark iniquities,
Lord, who could stand?
But there is forgiveness with you,
so that you may be revered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,
and in his word I hope;
my soul waits for the Lord
more than those who watch for the morning,
more than those who watch for the morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
O Israel, hope in the Lord!
For with the Lord there is steadfast love,
and with him is great power to redeem.
It is he who will redeem Israel
from all its iniquities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Psalm 32
The Joy of Forgiveness
Of David. A Maskil.
Happy are those whose transgression is forgiven,
whose sin is covered.
Happy are those to whom the Lord imputes no iniquity,
and in whose spirit there is no deceit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While I kept silence, my body wasted away
through my groaning all day long.
For day and night your hand was heavy upon me;
my strength was dried up as by the heat of summer.
Selah<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then I acknowledged my sin to you,
and I did not hide my iniquity;
I said, \u2018I will confess my transgressions to the Lord\u2019,
and you forgave the guilt of my sin.
Selah<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Therefore let all who are faithful
offer prayer to you;
at a time of distress, the rush of mighty waters
shall not reach them.
You are a hiding-place for me;
you preserve me from trouble;
you surround me with glad cries of deliverance.
Selah<\/p>\n\n\n\n
