< Psalms 130 >
1 A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths have I called Thee, O LORD.
Ɔsorokorɔ dwom. Ao Awurade, mefiri ebunu mu resu frɛ wo;
2 Lord, hearken unto my voice; let Thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.
Ao Awurade tie me nne. Wɛn wʼaso ma me nkotosrɛ.
3 If Thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand?
Ao Awurade, sɛ wobu yɛn bɔne ho nkonta a, anka hwan na ɔbɛtumi agyina ano?
4 For with Thee there is forgiveness, that Thou mayest be feared.
Nanso, wowɔ bɔnefakyɛ; ɛno enti wɔsuro wo.
5 I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in His word do I hope.
Metwɛn Awurade, me kra twɛn, na nʼasɛm mu na mede mʼanidasoɔ ahyɛ.
6 My soul waiteth for the Lord, more than watchmen for the morning; yea, more than watchmen for the morning.
Me kra twɛne Awurade sene sɛdeɛ awɛmfoɔ twɛne adekyeɛ, sene sɛdeɛ awɛmfoɔ twene adekyeɛ.
7 O Israel, hope in the LORD; for with the LORD there is mercy, and with Him is plenteous redemption.
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 his iniquities.
Ɔno ankasa bɛgye Israel afiri wɔn bɔne nyinaa mu.
