Salme 130

1 Sang til Festrejserne. Fra det dybe raaber jeg til dig, HERRE,

[A Song of Ascents.] Out of the depths I have cried to you, LORD.

2 o Herre, hør min Røst! Lad dine Ører lytte til min tryglende Røst!

LORD, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.

3 Tog du Vare, HERRE, paa Misgerninger, Herre, hvo kunde da bestaa?

If you, LORD, kept a record of sins, LORD, who could stand?

4 Men hos dig er der Syndsforladelse, at du maa frygtes.

But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be revered.

5 Jeg haaber paa HERREN, min Sjæl haaber paa hans Ord,

I wait for the LORD. My soul waits. I hope in his word.

6 paa Herren bier min Sjæl mer end Vægter paa Morgen, Vægter paa Morgen.

My soul longs for the LORD more than watchmen long for the morning; more than watchmen for the morning.

7 Israel, bi paa HERREN! Thi hos HERREN er Miskundhed, hos ham er Forløsning i Overflod.

Israel, hope in the LORD, for with the LORD there is loving kindness. With him is abundant redemption.

8 Og han vil forløse Israel fra alle dets Misgerninger.

He will redeem Israel from all their sins.
