< Psalms 130 >
1 [A Song of Ascents.] Out of the depths I have cried to you, YHWH.
Ɔsoroforo dwom. Awurade, mifi bun mu su frɛ wo;
2 YHWH, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.
Awurade, tie me nne. Wɛn wʼaso ma me nkotosrɛ.
3 If you, JAH, kept a record of sins, YHWH, who could stand?
Awurade, sɛ wubu yɛn bɔne ho nkontaa a, anka hena na obetumi agyina ano?
4 But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be revered.
Nanso wowɔ bɔnefakyɛ; ɛno nti wosuro wo.
5 I wait for YHWH. My soul waits. I hope in his word.
Metwɛn Awurade, me mu ade nyinaa twɛn, na nʼasɛm mu na mede mʼanidaso ahyɛ.
6 My soul longs for YHWH more than watchmen long for the morning; more than watchmen for the morning.
Metwɛn Awurade sen sɛnea awɛmfo twɛn adekyee, sen sɛnea awɛmfo twɛn adekyee.
7 Israel, hope in YHWH, for with YHWH there is loving kindness. With him is abundant redemption.
Israel, ma wʼani nna Awurade so, efisɛ Awurade wɔ adɔe a enni huammɔ na ogye ankasa wɔ ne mu.
8 He will redeem Israel from all their sins.
Ɔno ankasa begye Israel afi wɔn bɔne nyinaa mu.
