< Psalmorum 130 >
1 Canticum graduum. De profundis clamavi ad te Domine:
A song of ascents. Out of the depths I cry to you, Yahweh.
2 Domine exaudi vocem meam: Fiant aures tuae intendentes, in vocem deprecationis meae.
Lord, hear my voice; let your ears be attentive to my pleas for mercy.
3 Si iniquitates observaveris Domine: Domine quis sustinebit?
If you, Yahweh, would mark iniquities, Lord, who could stand?
4 Quia apud te propitiatio est: et propter legem tuam sustinui te Domine. Sustinuit anima mea in verbo eius:
But there is forgiveness with you, that you may be revered.
5 speravit anima mea in Domino.
I wait for Yahweh, my soul waits, and in his word I hope.
6 A custodia matutina usque ad noctem: speret Israel in Domino.
My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning.
7 Quia apud Dominum misericordia: et copiosa apud eum redemptio.
Israel, hope in Yahweh. Yahweh is merciful, and he is very willing to forgive.
8 Et ipse redimet Israel, ex omnibus iniquitatibus eius.
It is he who will redeem Israel from all his sins.
