Psalms 130

1 A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. I have called You from the depths, YHWH.

Ingoma yemiqanso. Ngingaphansi ekujuleni ngiyakhala kuwe, Thixo;

2 Lord, listen to my voice, Your ears are attentive to the voice of my supplications.

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

3 If You observe iniquities, Lord YAH, who stands?

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

4 But forgiveness [is] with You, that You may be feared.

Kodwa kuwe kulentethelelo; ngalokho uyesatshwa.

5 I hoped [for] YHWH—my soul has hoped, And I have waited for His word.

Ngiyamlindela uThixo, umphefumulo wami uyalinda, ngibeka ithemba lami elizwini lakho.

6 My soul [is] for the Lord, More than those watching for morning, Watching for morning!

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

7 Israel waits on YHWH, For kindness [is] with YHWH, And redemption [is] abundant with Him.

We Israyeli, beka ithemba lakho kuThixo, ngoba kuye uThixo kulothando olungaphuthiyo njalo kuye kulensindiso epheleleyo.

8 And He redeems Israel from all his iniquities!

Yena ngokwakhe uzahlenga u-Israyeli kuzozonke izono zabo.
