< Psalms 130 >
1 The song of greces. Lord, Y criede to thee fro depthes; Lord, here thou mi vois.
A song of ascents. Out of the depths I call to you, Lord.
2 Thin eeris be maad ententif; in to the vois of my biseching.
Lord, hear my voice: give heed with your ears to my loud plea.
3 Lord, if thou kepist wickidnessis; Lord, who schal susteyne?
If you should mark sin, Lord, O Lord, who could stand?
4 For merci is at thee; and, Lord, for thi lawe Y abood thee. Mi soule susteynede in his word; my soule hopide in the Lord.
But with you is forgiveness, that you may be feared.
5 Fro the morewtid keping til to niyt;
I wait for the Lord, I wait for his word,
6 Israel hope in the Lord.
I look for the Lord more than watchman for morning, than watchman for morning.
7 For whi merci is at the Lord; and plenteous redempcioun is at hym.
Israel, hope in the Lord: with the Lord there is love with him plenteous redemption.
8 And he schal ayen bie Israel; fro alle the wickidnessis therof.
And he redeems Israel from all his iniquities.
