Psalms 130

1 A Song of the Ascents. From depths I have called Thee, Jehovah.

Toka ndani yangu ninakulilia, Yahwe.

2 Lord, hearken to my voice, Thine ears are 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 dost observe, O Lord, who doth stand?

Kama wewe, Yahwe, ungehesabu maovu, Bwana, ni nani angesimama?

4 But with Thee [is] forgiveness, that Thou mayest be feared.

Lakini kwako kuna msamaha, ili uweze kuheshimiwa.

5 I hoped [for] Jehovah — hoped hath my soul, And for His word I have waited.

Ninamngoja Yahwe, nafsi yangu inasubiri, na katika neno lake ninatumainia.

6 My soul [is] for the Lord, More than those watching for morning, Watching for morning!

Nafsi yangu inamngoja Bwana kuliko mlinzi aingojavyo asubuhi.

7 Israel doth wait on Jehovah, For with Jehovah [is] kindness, And abundant with Him [is] redemption.

Israeli, umtumainie yahwe. Yahwe ni wenye huruma, na yuko tayari kusamehe.

8 And He doth redeem Israel from all his iniquities!

Ni yeye ambaye ataikomboa istaeli dhidi ya dhambi zake zote.
