Psalm 130New International Version (NIV)
Psalm 130
A song of ascents.

1
Out of the depths I cry to you, Lord;
2
Lord, hear my voice.
Let your ears be attentive
to my cry for mercy.

3
If you, Lord, kept a record of sins,
Lord, who could stand?
4
But with you there is forgiveness,
so that we can, with reverence, serve you.

5
I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits,
and in his word I put my hope.
6
I wait for the Lord
more than watchmen wait for the morning,
more than watchmen wait for the morning.

7
Israel, put your hope in the Lord,
for with the Lord is unfailing love
and with him is full redemption.
8
He himself will redeem Israel
from all their sins.

Revelation 2:2-4
2 I know your deeds, your hard work and your perseverance. I know that you cannot tolerate wicked people, that you have tested those who claim to be apostles but are not, and have found them false. 3 You have persevered and have endured hardships for my name, and have not grown weary.

4 Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken the love you had at first.
