< Psalms 130 >
1 A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths, have I cried unto thee, O Yahweh.
Toka ndani yangu ninakulilia, Yahwe.
2 O My Lord! hearken thou unto my voice, —Let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications,
Bwana, usikie sauti yangu; masikio yako na yasikie kwa makini kuomba kwangu kwa ajili ya huruma.
3 If, iniquities, thou shouldest mark, O Yah, O My Lord, who could stand?
Kama wewe, Yahwe, ungehesabu maovu, Bwana, ni nani angesimama?
4 But, with thee, is forgiveness, that thou mayest be revered.
Lakini kwako kuna msamaha, ili uweze kuheshimiwa.
5 I have waited for Yahweh, My soul hath waited for his word;
Ninamngoja Yahwe, nafsi yangu inasubiri, na katika neno lake ninatumainia.
6 I have hoped, O my soul, for My Lord, more than they who watch for the morning, who watch for the morning.
Nafsi yangu inamngoja Bwana kuliko mlinzi aingojavyo asubuhi.
7 Wait, O Israel, for Yahweh, —for, with Yahweh, is lovingkindness, and there aboundeth with him—redemption.
Israeli, umtumainie yahwe. Yahwe ni wenye huruma, na yuko tayari kusamehe.
8 He, therefore, will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
Ni yeye ambaye ataikomboa istaeli dhidi ya dhambi zake zote.
