Psalms 130

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

ᾠδὴ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν ἐκ βαθέων ἐκέκραξά σε κύριε

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

κύριε εἰσάκουσον τῆς φωνῆς μου γενηθήτω τὰ ὦτά σου προσέχοντα εἰς τὴν φωνὴν τῆς δεήσεώς μου

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]

ἐὰν ἀνομίας παρατηρήσῃ κύριε κύριε τίς ὑποστήσεται

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

ὅτι παρὰ σοὶ ὁ ἱλασμός ἐστιν

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

ἕνεκεν τοῦ νόμου σου ὑπέμεινά σε κύριε ὑπέμεινεν ἡ ψυχή μου εἰς τὸν λόγον σου

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!

ἤλπισεν ἡ ψυχή μου ἐπὶ τὸν κύριον ἀπὸ φυλακῆς πρωίας μέχρι νυκτός ἀπὸ φυλακῆς πρωίας ἐλπισάτω Ισραηλ ἐπὶ τὸν κύριον

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].

ὅτι παρὰ τῷ κυρίῳ τὸ ἔλεος καὶ πολλὴ παρ’ αὐτῷ λύτρωσις

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

καὶ αὐτὸς λυτρώσεται τὸν Ισραηλ ἐκ πασῶν τῶν ἀνομιῶν αὐτοῦ
