< Psalms 130 >
1 A song of ascents. Out of the depths I cry to You, O LORD!
He waiata; he pikitanga. I karanga ahau ki a koe, e Ihowa, i roto i nga hohonu.
2 O Lord, hear my voice; let Your ears be attentive to my plea for mercy.
E te Ariki, whakarongo mai ki toku reo: kia anga mai ou taringa ki toku reo inoi.
3 If You, O LORD, kept track of iniquities, then who, O Lord, could stand?
Me i maharatia e koe nga kino, e Ihowa, ko wai, e te Ariki, e tu?
4 But with You there is forgiveness, so that You may be feared.
Otira he muru hara tau, e wehingia ai koe.
5 I wait for the LORD; my soul does wait, and in His word I put my hope.
E tatari ana ahau ki a Ihowa; e tatari ana toku wairua: e tumanako ana hoki ahau ki tana kupu.
6 My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning— more than watchmen wait 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, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is loving devotion, and with Him is redemption in abundance.
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 iniquity.
A mana a Iharaira e hoko i roto i ona he katoa.
