Psalms 130

1 A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths have I called Thee, O LORD.

Ingoma yemiqanso. Ngingaphansi ekujuleni ngiyakhala kuwe, Thixo;

2 Lord, hearken unto my voice; let Thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.

Thixo, zwana ilizwi lami. Indlebe zakho kazilalele ukukhala kwami ngicela umusa.

3 If Thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand?

Aluba wena, Thixo ububhala phansi zonke izono, ngubani ongema na Nkosi?

4 For with Thee there is forgiveness, that Thou mayest be feared.

Kodwa kuwe kulentethelelo; ngalokho uyesatshwa.

5 I wait for the LORD, 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 watchmen for the morning; yea, more than watchmen for the morning.

Umphefumulo wami ulindela uThixo okudlula abalindi bemelele ukusa, okudlula abalindi bemelele ukusa.

7 O Israel, hope in the LORD; for with the LORD there is mercy, 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.
