< Psalms 130 >
1 A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. I have called You from the depths, YHWH.
Mɔzɔha. O! Yehowa, mele koko ƒom na wò tso nye dzi me ke.
2 Lord, listen to my voice, Your ears are attentive to the voice of my supplications.
O! Aƒetɔ, ɖo to nye gbe. Wò to nenɔ te nàse nye nublanuiɣli.
3 If You observe iniquities, Lord YAH, who stands?
O! Yehowa, ne àlé amewo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ɖe agbalẽ me ada ɖi la, O! Aƒetɔ, ame ka ate ŋu anɔ te?
4 But forgiveness [is] with You, that You may be feared.
Ke wò la, tsɔtsɔke le gbɔwò, eya ta wovɔ̃a wò ɖo.
5 I hoped [for] YHWH—my soul has hoped, And I have waited for His word.
Mele Yehowa ƒe asinu kpɔm, nye luʋɔ le lalam, eye metsɔ nye mɔkpɔkpɔ da ɖe eƒe nya dzi.
6 My soul [is] for the Lord, More than those watching for morning, Watching for morning!
Nye luʋɔ le lalam na Aƒetɔ la wu ale si zãɖialawo kpɔa mɔ na ŋu ƒe keke; mebe wu ale si zãɖialawo kpɔa mɔ na ŋu ƒe keke.
7 Israel waits on YHWH, For kindness [is] with YHWH, And redemption [is] abundant with Him.
O! Israel, tsɔ wò mɔkpɔkpɔ da ɖe Yehowa dzi, elabena lɔlɔ̃ matrɔ le Yehowa si, eye ɖeɖe blibo le eya amea gbɔ.
8 And He redeems Israel from all his iniquities!
Eya ŋutɔ aɖe Israel tso eƒe nu vɔ̃wo katã me.
