Psalms 130 · Geneva Bible Notes (1599)
"A Song of degrees." Out of the (a) depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD. (a) Being in great distress and sorrow. Psalms 130:3
If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, (b) who shall stand? (b) He declares that we cannot be just before God but by forgiveness of sins. Psalms 130:4
But [there is] forgiveness with thee, that thou (c) mayest be feared. (c) Because by nature you are merciful therefore the faithful revere you. Psalms 130:7
Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD [there is] (d) mercy, and with him [is] plenteous redemption. (d) He shows to whom the mercy of God belongs, that is, Israel, to the Church and not the reprobate.
