De Profundis (Ps. 129)
Out of the depths, I have cried unto Thee, O Lord; Lord, hear my voice.
Let Thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
If  Thou, O Lord, wilt mark iniquities; Lord, who shall abide it?
For with Thee there is merciful forgiveness; and by reason of Thy law I have waited for Thee, O Lord.
My soul hath relied on His word; my soul hath hoped in the Lord.
From the morning watch even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord,
Because with the Lord there is mercy, and with Him plentiful redemption.
And He shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

Eternal rest give unto them, O Lord.
And let perpetual light shine upon them.
May they rest in peace.
Amen.
Let us pray
O God, Creator and Redeemer of all the faithful; grant to the souls of thy servants departed the remission of all their sins, that by pious supplications they may obtain the pardon they have always desired. Who livest and reignest, world without end. Amen.
V. Eternal rest give unto them, O Lord.
R. And let perpetual light shine upon them.
V. May they rest in peace.
R. Amen
