| International Standard Version | New International Version |
| 1I cry to you from the depths, LORD, | 1A song of ascents. Out of the depths I cry to you, LORD; |
| 2Lord, listen to my voice; let your ears pay attention to what I ask of you! | 2Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to my cry for mercy. |
| 3LORD, if you were to record iniquities, Lord, who could remain standing? | 3If you, LORD, kept a record of sins, Lord, who could stand? |
| 4But with you there is forgiveness, so that you may be feared. | 4But with you there is forgiveness, so that we can, with reverence, serve you. |
| 5I wait for the LORD; my soul waits, and I will hope in his word. | 5I wait for the LORD, my whole being waits, and in his word I put my hope. |
| 6My soul looks to the Lord more than watchmen look for the morning— more, indeed, than watchmen for the morning. | 6I wait for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning, more than watchmen wait for the morning. |
| 7Israel, hope in the LORD! For with the LORD there is gracious love, along with abundant redemption. | 7Israel, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is unfailing love and with him is full redemption. |
| 8And he will redeem Israel from all its sins. | 8He himself will redeem Israel from all their sins. |
