< Psalmowo 130 >
1 Mɔzɔha. O! Yehowa, mele koko ƒom na wò tso nye dzi me ke.
A song of ascents. Out of the depths I call to you, Lord.
2 O! Aƒetɔ, ɖo to nye gbe. Wò to nenɔ te nàse nye nublanuiɣli.
Lord, hear my voice: give heed with your ears to my loud plea.
3 O! Yehowa, ne àlé amewo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ɖe agbalẽ me ada ɖi la, O! Aƒetɔ, ame ka ate ŋu anɔ te?
If you should mark sin, Lord, O Lord, who could stand?
4 Ke wò la, tsɔtsɔke le gbɔwò, eya ta wovɔ̃a wò ɖo.
But with you is forgiveness, that you may be feared.
5 Mele Yehowa ƒe asinu kpɔm, nye luʋɔ le lalam, eye metsɔ nye mɔkpɔkpɔ da ɖe eƒe nya dzi.
I wait for the Lord, I wait for his word,
6 Nye luʋɔ le lalam na Aƒetɔ la wu ale si zãɖialawo kpɔa mɔ na ŋu ƒe keke; mebe wu ale si zãɖialawo kpɔa mɔ na ŋu ƒe keke.
I look for the Lord more than watchman for morning, than watchman for morning.
7 O! Israel, tsɔ wò mɔkpɔkpɔ da ɖe Yehowa dzi, elabena lɔlɔ̃ matrɔ le Yehowa si, eye ɖeɖe blibo le eya amea gbɔ.
Israel, hope in the Lord: with the Lord there is love with him plenteous redemption.
8 Eya ŋutɔ aɖe Israel tso eƒe nu vɔ̃wo katã me.
And he redeems Israel from all his iniquities.
