Ψαλμοί 130

1 ᾠδὴ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν ἐκ βαθέων ἐκέκραξά σε κύριε

A song for pilgrims going up to Jerusalem. Lord, I cry out to you from the depths of my pain.

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

Please listen to my cry, and pay attention to what I'm asking.

3 ἐὰν ἀνομίας παρατηρήσῃ κύριε κύριε τίς ὑποστήσεται

Lord, if you kept a list of sins, who could escape being condemned?

4 ὅτι παρὰ σοὶ ὁ ἱλασμός ἐστιν

But you are forgiving so that we might respect you.

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

I'm waiting for the Lord, longingly waiting, for I trust in his word.

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

I long for the Lord to come, more than watchmen longing for the dawn to come, more than watchmen longing for the dawn to come.

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

Israel, put your hope in the Lord, for the Lord loves us with a trustworthy love and his salvation knows no limits.

8 καὶ αὐτὸς λυτρώσεται τὸν Ισραηλ ἐκ πασῶν τῶν ἀνομιῶν αὐτοῦ

He will save Israel from every sin.
