Psalms 130

1 A song of ascents. Out of the depths I cry to You, O LORD!

Mɔzɔha. O! Yehowa, mele koko ƒom na wò tso nye dzi me ke.

2 O Lord, hear my voice; let Your ears be attentive to my plea for mercy.

O! Aƒetɔ, ɖo to nye gbe. Wò to nenɔ te nàse nye nublanuiɣli.

3 If You, O LORD, kept track of iniquities, then who, O Lord, could stand?

O! Yehowa, ne àlé amewo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ɖe agbalẽ me ada ɖi la, O! Aƒetɔ, ame ka ate ŋu anɔ te?

4 But with You there is forgiveness, so that You may be feared.

Ke wò la, tsɔtsɔke le gbɔwò, eya ta wovɔ̃a wò ɖo.

5 I wait for the LORD; my soul does wait, and in His word I put my hope.

Mele Yehowa ƒe asinu kpɔm, nye luʋɔ le lalam, eye metsɔ nye mɔkpɔkpɔ da ɖe eƒe nya dzi.

6 My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning— more than watchmen wait for the morning.

Nye luʋɔ le lalam na Aƒetɔ la wu ale si zãɖialawo kpɔa mɔ na ŋu ƒe keke; mebe wu ale si zãɖialawo kpɔa mɔ na ŋu ƒe keke.

7 O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is loving devotion, and with Him is redemption in abundance.

O! Israel, tsɔ wò mɔkpɔkpɔ da ɖe Yehowa dzi, elabena lɔlɔ̃ matrɔ le Yehowa si, eye ɖeɖe blibo le eya amea gbɔ.

8 And He will redeem Israel from all iniquity.

Eya ŋutɔ aɖe Israel tso eƒe nu vɔ̃wo katã me.
