Salme 130

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

A song of ascents. Out of the depths I call to you, Lord.

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

Lord, hear my voice: give heed with your ears to my loud plea.

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

If you should mark sin, Lord, O Lord, who could stand?

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

But with you is forgiveness, that you may be feared.

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

I wait for the Lord, I wait for his word,

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

I look for the Lord more than watchman for morning, than watchman for morning.

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

Israel, hope in the Lord: with the Lord there is love with him plenteous redemption.

8 Og han vil forløse Israel fra alle dets Misgerninger.

And he redeems Israel from all his iniquities.
