Psalms 130

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

Ɔsoroforo dwom. Awurade, mifi bun mu su frɛ wo;

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

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

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

Awurade, sɛ wubu yɛn bɔne ho nkontaa a, anka hena na obetumi agyina ano?

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

Nanso wowɔ bɔnefakyɛ; ɛno nti wosuro wo.

5 I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in His word do I hope.

Metwɛn Awurade, me mu ade nyinaa twɛn, na nʼasɛm mu na mede mʼanidaso ahyɛ.

6 My soul waiteth for the Lord, more than watchmen for the morning; yea, more than watchmen for the morning.

Metwɛn Awurade sen sɛnea awɛmfo twɛn adekyee, sen sɛnea awɛmfo twɛn adekyee.

7 O Israel, hope in the LORD; for with the LORD there is mercy, and with Him is plenteous redemption.

Israel, ma wʼani nna Awurade so, efisɛ Awurade wɔ adɔe a enni huammɔ na ogye ankasa wɔ ne mu.

8 And He will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

Ɔno ankasa begye Israel afi wɔn bɔne nyinaa mu.
