1A Song of Degrees. O Lord, my heart is not exalted, neither have mine eyes been [haughtily] raised: neither have I exercised myself in great [matters], nor in things too wonderful for me.
1Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Lord.
2[I shall have sinned] if I have not been humble, but have exalted my soul: according to [the relation of] a weaned child to his mother, so wilt thou recompense my soul.
2Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.
3Let Israel hope in the Lord, from henceforth and for ever.
3If thou, Lord, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?
