Psalms 130

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

Ɔsorokorɔ dwom. Ao Awurade, mefiri ebunu mu resu frɛ wo;

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

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

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

Ao Awurade, sɛ wobu yɛn bɔne ho nkonta a, anka hwan na ɔbɛtumi agyina ano?

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

Nanso, wowɔ bɔnefakyɛ; ɛno enti wɔsuro wo.

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

Metwɛn Awurade, me kra twɛn, na nʼasɛm mu na mede mʼanidasoɔ ahyɛ.

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

Me kra twɛne Awurade sene sɛdeɛ awɛmfoɔ twɛne adekyeɛ, sene sɛdeɛ awɛmfoɔ twene adekyeɛ.

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

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 redeems Israel from all his iniquities!

Ɔno ankasa bɛgye Israel afiri wɔn bɔne nyinaa mu.
