< Psalms 130 >
1 A Song of Degrees. Out of the depths have I cried to thee, O Lord.
Ngisenzikini ngakhalela kuwe, Nkosi.
2 O Lord, hearken to my voice; let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
Nkosi, zwana ilizwi lami, indlebe zakho zilalele ilizwi lokuncenga kwami.
3 If thou, O Lord, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?
Uba wena, Nkosi, uqaphela iziphambeko, Nkosi, ngubani ongema?
4 For with thee is forgiveness: for thy name's sake
Kodwa kuwe kulothethelelo, ukuze wesatshwe.
5 have I waited for thee, O Lord, my soul has waited for thy word.
Ngiyilindele iNkosi, umphefumulo wami ulindile, lelizwini layo ngiyathemba.
6 My soul has hoped in the Lord; from the morning watch till night.
Umphefumulo wami ulindela iNkosi okwedlula abalindele ukusa, belindele ukusa.
7 Let Israel hope in the Lord: for with the Lord is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.
UIsrayeli kathembele eNkosini; ngoba eNkosini kulothandolomusa, njalo kuyo kulohlengo olunengi.
8 And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
Yona-ke izahlenga uIsrayeli kuzo zonke iziphambeko zakhe.
