The sixth penitential Psalme.
the 7. key.
The Iewes, or other people in tribulation for sinne, or temporal captiuitie, crie to God to be deliuered: 4. trusting, and encoreging ech other in Gods accustomed mercie, assuredly hoping that he wil redeme & deliuer them.
1 A gradual Canticle. FROM the depthes I haue cried to thee ô Lord:
2 Lord heare my voice: Let thine eares be intent, to the voice of my petition.
3 If thou shalt obserue iniquities ô Lord: Lord who shal susteyne it:
4 Because with thee there is propiciation: and for thy law I haue expected thee ô Lord. My soule hath expected in his word:
5 my soule hath hoped in our Lord.
6 From the morning watch euen vntil night: let Israel hope in our Lord.
7 Because with our Lord there is mercie: and with him plenteous redemption.
8 And he shal redeme Israel, from al his iniquities.
