Psalms 130

1 Yahweh, I have a lot of troubles/many difficulties, so I call out to you.

Cantique des degrés. Du fond de l’abîme je t’invoque, ô Éternel!

2 Yahweh, hear me, while I call out to you [SYN] to be merciful to me!

Seigneur, écoute ma voix! Que tes oreilles soient attentives A la voix de mes supplications!

3 Yahweh, if you kept a record of the sins [that we have committed], not one [of us] [RHQ] would escape from being condemned [and punished]

Si tu gardais le souvenir des iniquités, Éternel, Seigneur, qui pourrait subsister?

4 But you forgive us, with the result that we greatly revere you.

Mais le pardon se trouve auprès de toi, Afin qu’on te craigne.

5 Yahweh has said [that he would help/rescue me]; I trust what he said, and I wait eagerly for him to do that.

J’espère en l’Éternel, mon âme espère, Et j’attends sa promesse.

6 I wait for Yahweh [to help me] more than watchmen wait for the light to dawn; yes, I wait more eagerly than they do!

Mon âme compte sur le Seigneur, Plus que les gardes ne comptent sur le matin, Que les gardes ne comptent sur le matin.

7 You [my fellow] Israelis, confidently expect that Yahweh [will bless us]. [He will bless us] because he faithfully loves [us], and he is very willing to save/rescue [us].

Israël, mets ton espoir en l’Éternel! Car la miséricorde est auprès de l’Éternel, Et la rédemption est auprès de lui en abondance.

8 And he will save us Israeli [people] from [being punished for] all the sins that [we] have committed.

C’est lui qui rachètera Israël De toutes ses iniquités.
