Psalms 130

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

Ɔsorokorɔ dwom. Ao Awurade, mefiri ebunu mu resu frɛ wo;

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

Ao Awurade tie me nne. Wɛn wʼaso ma me nkotosrɛ.

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

Ao Awurade, sɛ wobu yɛn bɔne ho nkonta a, anka hwan na ɔbɛtumi agyina ano?

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

Nanso, wowɔ bɔnefakyɛ; ɛno enti wɔsuro wo.

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

Metwɛn Awurade, me kra twɛn, na nʼasɛm mu na mede mʼanidasoɔ ahyɛ.

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

Me kra twɛne Awurade sene sɛdeɛ awɛmfoɔ twɛne adekyeɛ, sene sɛdeɛ awɛmfoɔ twene adekyeɛ.

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

Ao Israel, ma wʼani nna Awurade so, ɛfiri sɛ Awurade wɔ adɔeɛ a ɛwɔ hɔ daa na ɔgyeɛ amapa wɔ ne mu.

8 And He will redeem Israel from all iniquity.

Ɔno ankasa bɛgye Israel afiri wɔn bɔne nyinaa mu.
