Amahubo 130

1 Ingoma yemiqanso. Ngingaphansi ekujuleni ngiyakhala kuwe, Thixo;

Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O YHWH.

2 Thixo, zwana ilizwi lami. Indlebe zakho kazilalele ukukhala kwami ngicela umusa.

YHWH, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.

3 Aluba wena, Thixo ububhala phansi zonke izono, ngubani ongema na Nkosi?

If thou, YAH, shouldest mark iniquities, O YHWH, who shall stand?

4 Kodwa kuwe kulentethelelo; ngalokho uyesatshwa.

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

5 Ngiyamlindela uThixo, umphefumulo wami uyalinda, ngibeka ithemba lami elizwini lakho.

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

6 Umphefumulo wami ulindela uThixo okudlula abalindi bemelele ukusa, okudlula abalindi bemelele ukusa.

My soul waiteth for YHWH more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.

7 We Israyeli, beka ithemba lakho kuThixo, ngoba kuye uThixo kulothando olungaphuthiyo njalo kuye kulensindiso epheleleyo.

Let Israel hope in YHWH: for with YHWH there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.

8 Yena ngokwakhe uzahlenga u-Israyeli kuzozonke izono zabo.

And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
