Zabbuli 130

1 Oluyimba nga balinnya amadaala. Ayi Mukama, nkukaabira nga nsobeddwa nnyo.

A Song of degrees. Out of the depths do I call upon thee, Jehovah.

2 Ayi Mukama, wulira eddoboozi lyange; otege amatu go eri eddoboozi ly’okwegayirira kwange.

Lord, hear my voice; let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.

3 Ayi Mukama, singa otubalira obutali butuukirivu bwaffe, ani eyandiyimiridde mu maaso go?

If thou, Jah, shouldest mark iniquities, Lord, who shall stand?

4 Naye osonyiwa; noolwekyo ossibwamu ekitiibwa.

But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.

5 Nnindirira Mukama, emmeeme yange erindirira era essuubi lyange liri mu kigambo kye.

I wait for Jehovah; my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.

6 Emmeeme yange erindirira Mukama; mmulindirira okusinga ng’abakuumi bwe balindirira obudde okukya; okusingira ddala ng’abakuumi bwe balindirira obudde okukya.

My soul [waiteth] for the Lord more than the watchers [wait] for the morning, [more than] the watchers for the morning.

7 Ayi Isirayiri, weesigenga Mukama, kubanga Mukama y’alina okwagala okutaggwaawo; era y’alina okununula okutuukiridde.

Let Israel hope in Jehovah, because with Jehovah there is loving-kindness, and with him is plenteous redemption;

8 Mukama y’alinunula Isirayiri n’amuggya mu byonoono bye byonna.

And he will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
