< Psalms 130 >
1 A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths I have cried to you, LORD.
He waiata; he pikitanga. I karanga ahau ki a koe, e Ihowa, i roto i nga hohonu.
2 Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.
E te Ariki, whakarongo mai ki toku reo: kia anga mai ou taringa ki toku reo inoi.
3 If you, LORD, kept a record of sins, Lord, who could stand?
Me i maharatia e koe nga kino, e Ihowa, ko wai, e te Ariki, e tu?
4 But there is forgiveness with you, therefore you are feared.
Otira he muru hara tau, e wehingia ai koe.
5 I wait for the LORD. My soul waits. I hope in his word.
E tatari ana ahau ki a Ihowa; e tatari ana toku wairua: e tumanako ana hoki ahau ki tana kupu.
6 My soul longs for the Lord more than watchmen long for the morning, more than watchmen for the morning.
Ko te taringa o toku wairua i te Ariki nui atu i to te hunga e whanga ana ki te ata; ae, i to te hunga e whanga ana ki te ata.
7 Israel, hope in the LORD, for there is loving kindness with the LORD. Abundant redemption is with him.
E Iharaira, kia tumanako ki a Ihowa, kei a Ihowa hoki te mahi tohu, a kei a ia te hokonga nui.
8 He will redeem Israel from all their sins.
A mana a Iharaira e hoko i roto i ona he katoa.
