< Psalms 130 >
1 A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Jehovah.
He waiata; he pikitanga. I karanga ahau ki a koe, e Ihowa, i roto i nga hohonu.
2 Lord, hear my voice: Let thine ears be attentive To the voice of my supplications.
E te Ariki, whakarongo mai ki toku reo: kia anga mai ou taringa ki toku reo inoi.
3 If thou, Jehovah, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand?
Me i maharatia e koe nga kino, e Ihowa, ko wai, e te Ariki, e tu?
4 But there is forgiveness with thee, That thou mayest be feared.
Otira he muru hara tau, e wehingia ai koe.
5 I wait for Jehovah, my soul doth wait, And in his word do I hope.
E tatari ana ahau ki a Ihowa; e tatari ana toku wairua: e tumanako ana hoki ahau ki tana kupu.
6 My soul [waiteth] for the Lord More than watchmen [wait] for the morning; [Yea, more than] watchmen for the morning.
Ko te taringa o toku wairua i te Ariki nui atu i to te hunga e whanga ana ki te ata; ae, i to te hunga e whanga ana ki te ata.
7 O Israel, hope in Jehovah; For with Jehovah there is lovingkindness, And with him is plenteous redemption.
E Iharaira, kia tumanako ki a Ihowa, kei a Ihowa hoki te mahi tohu, a kei a ia te hokonga nui.
8 And he will redeem Israel From all his iniquities.
A mana a Iharaira e hoko i roto i ona he katoa.
