< Psalms 130 >
1 A Song of degrees. Out of the depths do I call upon thee, Jehovah.
Ingoma yemiqanso. Ngingaphansi ekujuleni ngiyakhala kuwe, Thixo;
2 Lord, hear my voice; let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
Thixo, zwana ilizwi lami. Indlebe zakho kazilalele ukukhala kwami ngicela umusa.
3 If thou, Jah, shouldest mark iniquities, Lord, who shall stand?
Aluba wena, Thixo ububhala phansi zonke izono, ngubani ongema na Nkosi?
4 But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.
Kodwa kuwe kulentethelelo; ngalokho uyesatshwa.
5 I wait for Jehovah; my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.
Ngiyamlindela uThixo, umphefumulo wami uyalinda, ngibeka ithemba lami elizwini lakho.
6 My soul [waiteth] for the Lord more than the watchers [wait] for the morning, [more than] the watchers for the morning.
Umphefumulo wami ulindela uThixo okudlula abalindi bemelele ukusa, okudlula abalindi bemelele ukusa.
7 Let Israel hope in Jehovah, because with Jehovah there is loving-kindness, and with him is plenteous redemption;
We Israyeli, beka ithemba lakho kuThixo, ngoba kuye uThixo kulothando olungaphuthiyo njalo kuye kulensindiso epheleleyo.
8 And he will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
Yena ngokwakhe uzahlenga u-Israyeli kuzozonke izono zabo.
