Psalms 130

1 [A Song of Ascents.] Out of the depths I have cried to you, LORD.

Ingoma yemiqanso. Ngingaphansi ekujuleni ngiyakhala kuwe, Thixo;

2 LORD, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.

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

3 If you, LORD, kept a record of sins, LORD, who could stand?

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

4 But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be revered.

Kodwa kuwe kulentethelelo; ngalokho uyesatshwa.

5 I wait for the LORD. My soul waits. I hope in his word.

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

6 My soul longs for the LORD more than watchmen long for the morning; more than watchmen for the morning.

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

7 Israel, hope in the LORD, for with the LORD there is loving kindness. With him is abundant redemption.

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

8 He will redeem Israel from all their sins.

Yena ngokwakhe uzahlenga u-Israyeli kuzozonke izono zabo.
