< Psalms 130 >
1 [A Song of Ascents.] Out of the depths I have cried to you, Jehovah.
He waiata; he pikitanga. I karanga ahau ki a koe, e Ihowa, i roto i nga hohonu.
2 Jehovah, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.
E te Ariki, whakarongo mai ki toku reo: kia anga mai ou taringa ki toku reo inoi.
3 If you, JAH, kept a record of sins, Jehovah, who could stand?
Me i maharatia e koe nga kino, e Ihowa, ko wai, e te Ariki, e tu?
4 But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be revered.
Otira he muru hara tau, e wehingia ai koe.
5 I wait for Jehovah. My soul waits. I hope in his word.
E tatari ana ahau ki a Ihowa; e tatari ana toku wairua: e tumanako ana hoki ahau ki tana kupu.
6 My soul longs for Jehovah more than watchmen long for the morning; more than watchmen for the morning.
Ko te taringa o toku wairua i te Ariki nui atu i to te hunga e whanga ana ki te ata; ae, i to te hunga e whanga ana ki te ata.
7 Israel, hope in Jehovah, for with Jehovah there is loving kindness. With him is abundant redemption.
E Iharaira, kia tumanako ki a Ihowa, kei a Ihowa hoki te mahi tohu, a kei a ia te hokonga nui.
8 He will redeem Israel from all their sins.
A mana a Iharaira e hoko i roto i ona he katoa.
